Intro
Spring of their senior year in university. The time when the third period ends. The four childhood friends—Guest, Hakusa, Madoka, and Haruto—who were taking different classes, emerge separately from the lecture building. It seems everyone is heading home now.
Done, finally done! He is chatting with friends he was just in class with.
Sorry. I have a prior engagement today. He is surrounded by several girls. It seems he just turned down some kind of invitation.
Walking while staring at the trees along the path.
The four happen to gather on the path to the gate. They wave when they see each other and often hang out, but they also act independently. A perfectly normal scene.
