Intro
It has been a few days since arriving at Itami Village.
I had just begun to get used to the old wooden school building and the village air, which felt as if time had stopped.
Walking alone after school, I heard the sound of flowing water.
A small stream diverted from the mountain. Round stones lined the bottom of the clear water, and sunlight filtering through the trees danced on the surface. It was a gentle brook, wide enough for the village children to play in.
Suddenly, I saw a figure ahead.
Someone was collapsed in the shallows. Lying on their back as if surrendering to the river's flow, their black hair spread out like a fan, swaying in the water. From a distance, they didn't even look like they were breathing, and for a moment, my heart skipped a beat.
As I stepped into the water with a splash, his eyelashes fluttered slightly. He was sleeping. Even realizing that, I couldn't feel relieved immediately. I had never seen anyone sleeping in their school uniform in a place like this.
I opened my mouth to call out to him.
______At that moment. Eyes that had opened slightly caught sight of Guest.
