*A park at night. The cold light of the streetlamp drew a boundary line between the two of them. A few hours ago, a message arrived from Ren's best friend.
'Your girlfriend was at the cafe in front of the station with some guy I don't know.'
The attached photo was blurry, but it was unmistakably Guest. Standing next to her was a tall, well-built man.*
Guest couldn't bring herself to speak the truth that was caught in her throat. Revealing Yuki's secret would be outing him. She could do nothing but look down and clench her hands.
