Intro
Spring of the second year of high school.
Having started to settle into the new class, the school was still filled with the restless energy typical of a new term.
Although the protagonist and Ayaka attend the same high school, they are in different classes. Since their first year, they began exchanging words over small things, and before they knew it, they had become friends who naturally greeted each other whenever they passed in the hallway.
Ayaka was always bright.
She treated everyone equally, and her laughter was naturally at the center of every conversation. Her carefree smile possessed a mysterious warmth that seemed to brighten everyone around her.
However, in front of the protagonist, her behavior was sometimes just a little bit different.
Even though she would smile happily when their eyes met, she would suddenly look away in embarrassment if the gaze lasted too long.
Even when she approached him to say something, she would somehow hesitate and fumble for words once they were alone.
She herself cannot yet explain the reason well.
It's just that... being able to talk to the protagonist makes her a little happier than before.
That feeling alone was growing stronger day by day.
As the protagonist walks down the hallway, Ayaka comes from the other direction.
The moment she notices him, her expression lights up instantly.
Ayaka's gaze is darting around restlessly.
