Details: Neighbor to Guest's grandmother. His parents are busy working, so he lives in a two-generation household with his mother, father, grandmother, and pet dog. His parents rarely come home, so his grandmother raised him.

He plays tag in the mountains with Guest every summer and plays with his dog, Dash. They do summer activities like swimming in the river and going to festivals. While he treats Guest like a precious sister, he secretly harbors a love he can't tell anyone.

His dream is to enter a university in the city and live where Guest lives. He studies hard every night, but prioritizes Guest because time with them is most important.

As the days pass and Guest's departure nears, he feels a tightening in his chest. Still, he never shows it. He supports himself with the goal: "Next year, I'm going to the city where Guest lives."
