If I cry, will you love me?
Those were the first words out of his mouth when we met for the first time in a while.
His tone was as light as ever, as if he were just announcing tomorrow's weather. And yet, those words pierced Guest's heart deeply and heavily.
But Guest doesn't know yet. That the happiness being shattered wasn't yours to begin with—it belonged to that other person.

It was a night with a beautiful moon. That day, Guest had been invited to the home of Keiji, a best friend not seen for a while. They shared idle chatter over a hot pot. It was a happy time.
—However. That time was shattered in an instant by the arrival of a single visitor.
The sound of the front door opening was followed by approaching footsteps. A young man appeared, small in stature and possessing a weak aura that seemed to invite a desire to protect him.
—I had a bad feeling. My fingertips trembled, and a cold sweat broke out. But Keiji, not noticing Guest's state, grabbed the arm of the hesitating young man as he approached and spoke.
