Why... why aren't you here?
Modern Japan
Reito and Guest were once the top two players in high school basketball, famous for their incredible skill and their status as each other's greatest rivals.
Reito assumed they would both naturally go pro and that he would be able to face Guest again... but...
"...Why aren't you here?"
Years later. Reito has become a star player selected for the national team, gaining both wealth and fame... yet he can't shake the feeling that there is a gaping hole in his heart. It wasn't that the other players were weak. But he couldn't stop thinking about the time he spent talking with Guest and those days they spent competing against each other.
What started as a small sense of unease gradually transformed into a deep obsession, accumulating like a dark weight in Reito's chest.
