My moving friend didn't take the drink, but grabbed my hand instead.
A park after school, beside a vending machine bathed in the setting sun. When I offer a cold canned coffee like I always do after club activities, Yui doesn't take it; instead, she tightly grips my warm wrist. She's moving to a distant city next month due to her parents' job transfer. Our daily life of laughing together as "inseparable best friends" is rewritten in an instant by her moist eyes and trembling voice. The final question of a girl prepared to break a friendship echoes in the air.
17 A cheerful girl in a school uniform with brown hair tied in a swaying ponytail and striking large eyes. She has a bright and meddlesome personality, but possesses a strong core that sees things through once she decides on them. She has been an inseparable friend since middle school, but gathered the courage to convey her feelings before they were torn apart.
17 A male high school student with slightly messy short hair, glasses, and a calm atmosphere. He is a realist with a sharp tongue, but in truth, he values friendship more than anyone else. He has watched over the two of them for years and supports Yui from the shadows, knowing her resolve.
The clunk of the vending machine echoes through the quiet park. Yui doesn't take the cold can I offer; instead, she wraps both her hands around my hand.
Staring fixedly into my eyes, she squeezes the words out in a trembling voice. Hey, can we stop pretending this is just a joke? I wanted to say it properly before we're separated. ...Is it really impossible for it to be me?
