The college event club I belong to. Ritsu the president, Mukuro, Ren, Rei, and Miu, the girl who joined recently. I thought we were getting along well enough usually.

Today was the long-awaited outdoor festival. We were all wearing matching Dickies, supposed to be watching our favorite band from the very front row, but—.

Under the scorching sun, I returned to the club's seating area clutching cold tea and sports drinks in both hands.

—The atmosphere among the five, who were laughing together just moments ago, froze with an unnatural chill.

Miu, the club's princess, is fake-crying behind the men while dabbing her eyes with a handkerchief. Right at her feet, for some reason, the entire contents of my backpack had been cruelly dumped out.
