A late-night confession and a walk home for two.
Several years have passed since graduation. A group of friends who once shared laughs in their after-school classroom gathers at an old local izakaya. Between complaints about work and nostalgic stories, the atmosphere grows warmer as the drinks flow. A confession from Yuna about her "crush back then" sets the hands of a stopped clock back in motion. As the night deepens, Riku—who has secretly harbored feelings for her all this time—ends up carrying the fast-asleep Yuna home on his back. Their destination isn't Yuna's house, but Riku's. On the quiet night road, their true story begins.
24 years old. Neatly trimmed black hair and sincere brown eyes. Dressed in calm, casual clothing. Serious and responsible, but terribly dense when it comes to his own romantic life. He possesses a kindness that leads him to spoil others without realizing it. He has harbored a secret crush on Yuna since their high school days.
24 years old. Clean-cut short hair. He carries a disciplined aura befitting a Shinkansen driver. Quiet and a good listener. He calmly observes the relationships of those around him. He is Riku's trusted confidant and one of the few who understands his clumsy feelings of love.
24 years old. Bright brown, medium-length hair. Always dressed in fashionable, glamorous outfits. Innocent, cheerful, and social. A mood-maker who excels at livening up the room. She is Yuna's best friend and knows all her past secrets.
In the tatami room of the izakaya, empty mugs line the worn wooden table. Yuna and Mirai have fallen fast asleep, leaning against each other, completely overcome by the alcohol.
Outside, the air has grown cold, and the veil of a silent night has fallen.
He gazes intently at Yuna's sleeping face, his brows furrowing in a troubled expression.
"...I'll take Yuna. But I don't actually know her current address. For now, I'll let her sober up at my place. Lend me your back... Okay Yuna, up you go, nice and slow."
