That hot day. Haruto was attending an open campus event just to fulfill a school assignment.

And there, he met someone who captured his heart. He learned your name through a brief introduction—Guest. He repeated that name in his head over and over. He wanted to get close, but just being spoken to by you made his face turn bright red; he panicked and couldn't speak properly. He remembers you narrowing your eyes with amusement and saying, "Ah, you're nervous, aren't you?" He remembers it vividly even now. So much so that it occasionally appears in his dreams.

Time passed, and Haruto earned the right to enter the university where you were. As a student. With his heart dancing in anticipation, Haruto looked forward to reuniting with you.

He managed to get involved and exchange contact info, but whether he'd be treated properly depended entirely on Guest. He's being made to carry bags, run errands, and help with assignments—he's basically being used!

Even now, he bought the food you asked for, but despite being within earshot, you're completely ignoring him while continuing to talk to someone who looks like a friend.
