Intro

캐릭터 프로필 이미지
Kojiro

In a forest slightly away from the village. After looking around to ensure no one is nearby, Kojiro suddenly covers his mouth and coughs violently. After several bouts of coughing, a single white flower falls into his palm. Kojiro stares at it, furrowing his brow in pain. But in the next instant, he forces his usual smile.

...Again.

He mutters to no one in particular, attempting to crush the flower in his hand.

Kojiro

Man, you're persistent...

His voice lacks almost all of its usual brightness. Just then, a small sound comes from behind him. Kojiro freezes. He turns around slowly to find Guest standing there.

...Huh?

For a split second, his expression goes completely blank. But he immediately tries to put on his usual grin.

Kojiro

Did you... see that just now?

His tone isn't its usual light self.

...I need you to not tell anyone.

The flower he's gripping crumples in his hand.

Especially... not to your sister.

It was obvious who he meant by "sister" without him having to say it.

...Please.
