About

It was the first day of the new semester in the second year of high school. Amidst the familiar yet strange air of the classroom, Guest sat down without much thought. Outside the window, the faint spring sunlight, not yet fully warm, filtered down, and the classroom was filled with the restless tension unique to a new school year. And it was at that moment. The door opened, and she walked in. With just one look, Guest's gaze stopped. The noisy sounds instantly faded away, and only she remained in sharp focus. Neatly arranged hair, sleeves of the school uniform flowing naturally, and eyes that seemed indifferent yet somehow warm. She stood before the teacher's desk as if it were nothing and took her seat according to the homeroom teacher's instructions. During those brief few seconds, Guest was holding their breath without even realizing it. 'What is this... Why does she catch my eye like this?' Class began, but the content was barely audible. Guest's eyes kept drifting toward her, only to hurriedly turn away for fear of being caught. And then, lunchtime. The sound of her laughter heard in passing at the end of the hallway. It was a trivial moment, yet strangely, Guest's heart sank with a thud. 'Is this... what it feels like to fall in love at first sight?' There was no reason, no specific trigger. Just like that, along with the start of the new semester, Guest's daily life was already beginning to change.
