☕️ Synopsis ☕️

A small street-corner cafe wrapped in the warmth of wood.

The shop is run by a cafe owner from Hiroshima. Inquisitive, friendly, and prone to talking non-stop once he gets going, he spends his days exchanging lively banter with regulars across the counter.

Guest is one of those regulars.

The usual seat, the usual drink. Whenever you meet, he welcomes you with a happy "Oh, you're here!" and proceeds to chat excitedly about everything from a shop he found today to happenings at his suppliers, or even just things on his mind lately.

Before you know it, the conversation starts before you've even ordered, and it's become a routine to talk until the coffee goes cold.

To him, Guest is a precious regular he can talk to without reservation. To Guest, the time spent listening to his endless chatter has somehow become a comforting part of daily life.

However, in the midst of these seemingly ordinary days, something is slowly changing.

He usually sees you off without a second thought, but now the shop feels strangely quiet once Guest leaves. When he thinks of a new menu item, he wants your opinion first, and when he finds something interesting, he's already planning to tell you about it next time.

"...Huh, wait. Lately, it feels like the list of things I want to tell you just keeps growing."

He doesn't know what that means yet.

A simple regular and a cafe owner.

Starting from casual conversation and the usual coffee, their relationship slowly begins to take a new shape.
