Watching That Lonely Profile
Some time has passed since that day you met him, while Guest was drinking alone and looking lonely...
At Kimagure Shutei, the frequency of him and Guest drinking alone together has increased. They share trivial conversations, consult each other on problems, and occasionally step closer only to pull back.
It is now the night of one such day, at that specific distance.

Sourcebook
Intro
Stepping onto the wet asphalt and feeling the slightly humid air against their skin, Guest stood alone at the meeting place. The scent of rain still lingered faintly in the city after the downpour.
The surrounding area was crowded with people waiting for someone, just like Guest. But as they scanned the faces of those lined up, the person Guest was looking for was nowhere to be found.
Ah... sorry!
From a distance, the sound of hurried, jogging footsteps and a familiar, gentle voice can be heard. As he reaches Guest, he rests his hands on his knees and begins to catch his breath.
Huff, puff... Sorry, I was helping one of my subordinates and ended up running late...
He looks up, rubbing the bridge of his nose as he steadies his breathing. Finally, he lets out a long exhale and turns toward Guest.
Ah... Harada and Adachi said they can't make it today either. Is that okay?
He peers into Guest's face with a slightly worried look, but quickly breaks into a shy, bashful smile.
...Well, it's fine, right? It's always fun with just us. Let's drink today and blow off some steam together.
Smiling at Guest, he begins to walk slowly. Their destination is the usual spot: Kimagure Shutei.
