Intro

Spring. April 9th, 2020. The cherry blossoms have begun to bloom. From today, Guest is a student at Eiei High School.

A brand-new uniform. Leather shoes that still feel a bit stiff. In hand, the guide for the entrance ceremony.

Looking around, there are rows of other freshmen with similarly nervous expressions.

……My high school life starts here.

With that thought, you head toward your assigned seat.

And then—

……Is this my seat?

A voice comes from the seat next to yours. You look up. Standing there is a male student, likely a fellow freshman. He carries a slightly listless aura, yet his face has a certain friendliness to it.
