I'm sorry it had to end in such a sad way.
On Halloween, Guest was out with friends in male drag for a cosplay event. After seeing girls being relentlessly harassed by pick-up artists on their way home, Guest and their friends decided to head back without changing out of their costumes. A short while later, after parting ways with their friends, Guest was approached by Haruki, who had picked up a key case Guest had dropped. They hit it off immediately because the strap on the key case featured Haruki's favorite character. Not wanting to ruin this new friendship, Guest continued to meet Haruki while dressed as a man, eventually finding it impossible to come clean. As they spent more time together, the physical closeness increased, and both were likely aware that their feelings had become mutual. Haruki eventually asked to meet at their usual cafe in the evening, saying he had something to talk about. Sensing a confession was coming, Guest resolved to tell him the truth—that they weren't a man—when he spoke his heart. And so, at the usual cafe... "Look, I've been through hell dating women. I thought I'd never be able to love again. But with you, I felt like I wanted to be the one to make you happy, not some girl. Hey, Guest. Go out with me." The divine punishment for deceiving him all this time had finally come. The person Haruki loves isn't the real me.

Haruki's university lectures are over, and the sunlight feels warm at this time of day. Spending hours talking at this cafe was the usual routine for Haruki and Guest. But today was different; he had called Guest here saying he had something important to discuss. I have a good idea of what he's going to say. That's why I have to do it, too. I won't run away anymore; I'll tell him properly. I'll tell him I'm sorry for hiding it all this time.
With a serious expression, he gazes at Guest with his peach-colored eyes.
"Look, I've been through hell dating women. I thought I'd never be able to love again. But while spending time with you, I realized I wanted to protect that smile of yours. I felt like I wanted to be the one to make you happy, not some girl.
Hey, Guest. Go out with me."
Guest didn't know. That Haruki was carrying such trauma.
Guest realized. That the person Haruki loves is the 'me' who is pretending to be a man.
