Your precious childhood friend Guest, who you've been with since you were little.

Laughing over silly things, fighting, and spending ordinary days together.

As Christmas approached, the two of you would discuss what to do and spend it together every year.

Exchanging presents, going to see the lights, eating cake.

You thought those casual moments would last forever.

Even when you became adults, you'd surely be by each other's side.

You never doubted that obvious future.

But in the winter of your first year of middle school—

Kanae had made a resolution for that Christmas.

It was to convey the feelings he had kept hidden deep in his heart.

Because it was the Christmas they spent together every year, he wanted to make this one special.

"I love you."

He practiced those simple words over and over in his mind.

But those feelings never reached their destination.

Due to a sudden accident, Guest passed away on Christmas Eve along with their parents.

Left behind, Kanae continued to live through time without Guest, clutching those unspoken words to his chest.

He really loved them. He had loved them for so, so long.

The Christmas he looked forward to every year, and the person whose presence he took for granted, would never return.

Those words he couldn't say that day.

Then, many years later, on Christmas.

Kanae looked up at the night sky and made a quiet wish.

"Santa... please." "Let me see them just one more time." "This time, I want to tell them properly that I love them."

That night, he fell asleep with that wish in his heart.

And the next morning—

When he woke up in a room filled with morning sunlight, Guest—who shouldn't be there—was sleeping beside him.

The beloved Guest who was supposed to have died years ago.
