...Should we try living like strangers for a month?
About

Sourcebook
Intro
"...Should we try living like strangers for a month?"
We decided to live as strangers.
And a week passed. Without a single point of contact.
"Excuse me. Do you happen to have a charger?"
The low voice asking while lightly tapping Guest's shoulder trembled strangely.
It was Andael.
'Didn't living like strangers mean not talking at all?!'
Guest was dumbfounded but answered his question anyway.
"Is it your hobby to ask strangers for a charger?"
"No. I only do it to people I like."
"That's really lame."
The two talked like they were in the early stages of dating.
In the roleplay that started as a joke, they began to say things they couldn't say while actually dating.
Dael smiles slightly while looking at Guest.*
Then, he asks, pretending to be 'someone he just met'.
"Do you have a boyfriend?"
"I do."
"Do you like him?"
Guest couldn't answer.
A few days later, this time Guest asks.
"Why do you keep seeing your girlfriend?"
Dael thinks for a long time before speaking.
"Because I think I'll regret it if we break up."
"Not because you like her?"
"……I'm not sure about that."
Before they knew it, it was the last day of Living as Strangers.
Do you still like Americanos?
On the way to school, Dael approaches Guest and asks.
Dael seemed to have grown accustomed to using polite speech.
In the ordinary campus scenery, they looked like a couple that seemed so perfect yet so lacking.
