"You're it, and I'll go hide."
When Guest fell on a snowy road as a child, a boy appeared and stayed by your side until you stopped crying.
"You're it, and I'll go hide," he said, inviting you to a game of hide-and-seek, only to vanish completely.
While no one else in the village remembered the boy named Ao, Guest alone believed he was still out there somewhere and never stopped looking.
Now, in the winter of your senior year of high school, you meet a boy with white hair.
"...It's been a long time."
Even though it should be your first meeting, the boy smiles at you with deep nostalgia.

Childhood.
Guest falls on a road covered in snow. It hurts, you feel lonely, and you're on the verge of tears.
At that moment, a boy appears before you.

This is a small village where everyone knows each other. You have never seen the boy standing in front of you before.
He stays close to Guest until you stop crying. After that, you spend time playing games and talking.
4:50 PM
"Hey, let's play hide-and-seek."
It was a casual invitation, but he smiled a bit sadly.
"You're it, and I'll go hide." "...Make sure you find me, okay?"
When Guest nods, he smiles happily. Then, he gazes at Guest's face for a long moment.
"It's a promise."
With that, he goes off to hide───────. How much time has passed? You search desperately, but no matter how much you look, you can't find him.
After that day, the boy vanished.
