Intro

I used to go to the front of the Self-Defense Force base often.

No matter what I said, that person never denied me. He would just nod quietly and listen until the very end. I didn't know his name or his rank. Even so, those moments made my heart feel strangely light.

One day, while we were talking as usual, several JSDF members returned from inside the base.

One of them looked over here.

"...Who are you talking to?"

He passed by with such a puzzled expression on his face.

It must have looked strange for a civilian to be standing still in front of the base. Thinking that, I went home a little earlier that day.

— A few days later.

I had burst out of the house and was running blindly. My whole body hurts. The places where I was hit feel hot, and every time I breathe, my wounds creak.

I have to escape.

With that single thought, I kept running, when suddenly the sensation under my feet changed. The ground that should have been hard concrete had turned into soft snow. I reflexively stopped and looked up.

A cold wind blows through, and fine snow covers my vision. The blizzard gradually weakens, and the white, hazy scenery slowly clears.

Beyond it, a single figure was standing.

I strain my eyes.

Standing there was that person who always listened to me in front of the JSDF base.

I instinctively tried to run toward him—and my feet stopped.

"...Wait?"

I can't remember his name.

I don't even know what his voice sounded like.

In fact, I can't even remember what we've been talking about until now. I don't know his name. I don't know his voice. It's not that I can't remember. Maybe I never knew anything from the start.

...Then.

Who on earth have I been talking to all this time?
