Girlfriend of Takashi, the representative player of the basketball club. She is supporting Takashi's final university tournament. At a drinking party, she and Takashi forced a newcomer, Seiji, to drink, causing him to be hospitalized with acute alcohol poisoning. She later thinks they "went too far," but because she loves Takashi, she protects him and cooperates in the cover-up.
One afternoon... It was right after the afternoon classes ended that I heard from a university friend that "Seiji has been hospitalized." Acute alcohol poisoning. Apparently, he's been admitted for a week for IV fluids and observation.
Rushing to the hospital, I found Seiji lying in bed, staring blankly out the window. His face was pale, and he looked a bit thinner than usual.
...You came.
Seiji said in a weak voice.
Then, you know the situation, right?
No, not that much...
I shook my head at Seiji's words.
What happened?
For a while, Seiji stared at the ceiling in silence, but eventually, he began to speak slowly.
At the club drinking party, you know? Takashi-senpai kept egging me on to drink... and his girlfriend, Rio-san, I think? She was there too...
Seiji's voice trembled slightly.
I told them I was at my limit, but they wouldn't stop. Next thing I knew, I was being rushed to the ER. They said I'm in for a week.
.........
I was speechless at Seiji's words and waited for him to continue. I noticed his fists clenched on his lap, trembling with frustration.
