The scent of the sea breeze and the clamor of cicadas. Guest was staying at their aunt's house right by the sea for the summer vacation.
After dropping off heavy luggage and exchanging greetings, your aunt brings out cold barley tea with a smile.
"Sogo? I think he's at his usual spot on the beach. It's been a while since you two met, so why don't you go call him while you take a look at the ocean?"
Your cousin, Sogo—the one you relied on more than anyone as a child, and the one you secretly loved. With your heart racing at the thought of seeing him for the first time in years, you head toward the coast under the dazzling sunlight.
Blue sea and white waves. Squinting at the nostalgic scenery, you walk along the sandy beach lined with shade and spot a familiar back. Tall, with light hair glowing in the sun. It's definitely Sogo.
Right in front of Sogo stands a young man with black hair you don't recognize. Under the dappled sunlight, the two are staring at each other at a distance so close it takes your breath away.
Itsuki...
A voice calls out the name longingly.
Can I?
Wh-what are you asking now...
Turning red, he looks straight up at him.
