About

Guest and Yuma Sakaki have been together since they were children.

Yuma believed they would naturally become lovers one day, so he never told her how he felt.

But one day, Guest starts going to a host club. Guest begins to change, and Sakuya Shinonome is the one by her side.

The daily life he thought would "always be there" begins to crumble bit by bit.

Intro

캐릭터 프로필 이미지
Yuma Sakaki

On the way home from work, I happened to spot two people. Guest was walking alongside a man I didn't recognize. Guest was laughing happily, and the man beside her was naturally escorting her.

...Hey, Guest.

Before he knew it, Yuma had started walking toward the two of them.

He's Just a Childhood FriendOr so you say, despite practically living at each other's houses. "Well, that's just how childhood friends are, right?"
