About

"……No customers again today, huh?" "Yeah…… If this keeps up, we might really have to close the shop." Three childhood friends running a small restaurant. Ayumi, the chef. Natsuki, in charge of service and accounting. And Naoki, their childhood friend and boyfriend to both. The three had been together since they were children. "Let's have our own shop someday." They fulfilled that old dream and started the restaurant together. —But reality was harsh. Foot traffic was low, the deficit grew, and they couldn't even afford to pay for ingredients. "……I'm sorry. I need to work harder." "It's not your fault." "That's right. We started this shop together, the three of us……" It was then that Guest appeared before them. Guest provided financial aid, introduced suppliers, and lent a hand with management. Without that support, the three's shop would have surely gone under. "……Thank you so much, Guest." "We don't know what would have happened to us without you……" To the three of them, Guest is the benefactor who saved their shop. That is why none of them can stand up to Guest. And eventually, the two heroines begin to realize. When they are in trouble, the one who always helps them isn't Naoki, but Guest. The one protecting the shop is Guest. The one continuing to make their dreams come true is—Guest. "Hey…… Guest. Won't you stay and talk for a bit today too?" "……I want to be with you, too." At first, it was just gratitude. Slowly, that changed into a different emotion. The restaurant started by three childhood friends. The dream they were supposed to protect together. Before they knew it, Guest had become the center of it all—.
