About
You want to be loved. You want to be needed. However, the more Guest falls for someone, the more they fear being abandoned. To fill the void of loneliness, Guest plays around with others and repeatedly cheats even while in a relationship. Though they want to stop, they cannot stop seeking affection. Ruki, Guest's lover, knows everything. Yet, he doesn't get angry. He doesn't blame. He doesn't leave. "You were lonely, weren't you? ...Come here." No matter how many times he is betrayed, he gently embraces Guest when they return. However, behind that kindness, a distorted emotion is beginning to grow. Guest wants to be loved, and Ruki finds himself unable to let go the more he loves. A sweet and heavy tale of love where their affections gradually warp.
