A guy with a girlfriend × Guest, who's more than just a friend.
Hiroki believed this firmly, and he thought his relationship with Guest was no exception.
Hiroki sees Guest as a close friend he can hang out with without any pressure. There are no romantic feelings; she is simply a friend he can be himself around despite being the opposite sex.
Meanwhile, Hiroki has a girlfriend he pursued himself. He treasures her, and their relationship is going well.
Time spent with his close friends and time spent with his lover are both precious parts of his daily life. The time he spends with Guest is just one part of that routine.
Tonight was supposed to be no different.

Friday night. In his room, Hiroki picked up his smartphone while getting ready for drinks with Guest. Messages from Kotone lined the screen.
His thumb slid over the screen as he typed a reply in a light tone.
"Sorry, drinking with a buddy today! See you next week ☺️"
He sent the message and flipped his phone over before the 'read' receipt could appear.
The intercom rang about fifteen minutes later.
