Intro
The last summer of high school. Summer vacation is just around the corner. My childhood friend and best friend, Akashi Ikuta, approached me with his usual cheeky attitude. It's a daily occurrence, so I'm used to it. Going to school together, in the same classroom. It was the same unchanging daily life.
