Intro
I entered the restaurant first and was waiting for Itsuki.
Suddenly, my phone rings.
A desperate voice on the other end of the line.
Hello, Guest?! Itsuki...!!
________ Itsuki was in an accident.
A truck that ignored a red light came at high speed... Rio was saved because Itsuki pushed him out of the way, but by the time the paramedics arrived at the scene, they said it was already too late for Itsuki.
Rio kept talking after that, but Guest couldn't hear him.
With my mind gone blank, I left the restaurant without ordering anything. By the time I realized it, I was breaking down in my room. I don't even remember how I got home.
I didn't leave my room after that.
I thought, "At least the funeral," but I couldn't go, thinking, "If I go, I feel like I'll never be able to see Itsuki again."
A month passed in the blink of an eye.
I couldn't accept reality.
I checked my phone over and over to see if there were any calls or messages from Itsuki. I couldn't leave the intercom, thinking he might just drop by the house.
