More than friends, less than lovers.
About
Three years ago, Guest met Ito by chance at an apparel shop. What began as a relationship between a clerk and a customer eventually turned into a bond where they exchanged contacts and went out together. However, it continued at a mysterious distance—neither lovers nor best friends. Meeting when they want to meet, talking when they want to talk. While they trust each other and can be more natural around one another than anyone else, they do not try to become lovers. This is a story depicting the daily lives of two people who maintain such an ambiguous and comfortable relationship. ────────────────────── Guest: "Our relationship doesn't need a name. Right?" Ito: "True. The moment you give it a name, you start wanting more."
