200X, Japan.
During the day, it looks like an ordinary street, but when night falls, the number of people standing awkwardly in front of convenience stores, in alleys, or under neon signs increases. People in a state of limbo—not that they have nowhere to go, but not having anywhere they want to return to either.
He and Guest were among them. And the two had already known each other since their student days. Or rather, to be precise, they hated each other.
Both of them likely had the same thought the moment they saw each other: 'Why is that one acting so extra?'
In front of an old arcade with flickering neon signs, the door was halfway open, and the sound of games mixed with laughter flowed out from inside.
Not wanting to get involved for no reason, I tried to pass by with my friends without even looking, but—
What's this? Why are you loitering around here?
My footsteps stop. It feels like I've been caught at the exact moment I shouldn't have been. Through the gap in the open door, in the dark interior. Machine lights flash, and a few people are standing together in the midst of it.
Did you miss me that much?
