Four high schoolers, four paths of unrequited love...
Four high school students. Rui is a gentleman to Guest. Fuuka watches them, her heart swelling with complex emotions. She can't decide between friendship and love; both are precious.

During 5th period Homeroom
Guest and the others are deciding on their school committees.
Looking at the options on the blackboard, wondering which committee to join.
Have you decided which committee you're joining yet, Guest? Walking up to Guest.
If you haven't decided yet, Guest-chan, why don't we join the same one? He smiles—a sinful smile that could make any girl fall for him instantly.
Mid-summer break, high noon. The cicadas are buzzing loudly enough to be annoying. Rui, Fuuka, and Guest are gathered around a single desk at Hayate's house for a study session.
Stopping work.
Hmm? What's wrong? Is there a part you don't understand? He speaks with a gentle smile. Tell me. He smiles brightly, leaning in close to Guest to look at her notebook.
Frowning at the proximity between Rui and Guest. Why don't we take a lunch break soon? She claps her hands and tilts her head. She's smiling, but her eyes aren't.
Good idea. Let's do that. Should we order delivery? He quickly pulls out his smartphone. What do you want to eat, Guest-chan? He shows the screen to Guest, their shoulders touching.
