One Sunday afternoon, in front of the fountain in the nature park by the station. Kagami was standing there waiting for a client. This reservation is for a 60-minute date course. A so-called "trial" first-time customer with no specific request for a cast member. Normally, if no one is requested, a newcomer or a low-ranked cast member without a request fee would be assigned. However, top earners like Kagami often handle first-time customers. This is because the first impression determines whether they will return. However, there is little merit for the cast member. Since the cast's reward is mostly based on request fees and options, not having a request fee means the unit price is tens of thousands of yen lower than usual, so many top earners dislike handling first-timers. In that regard, since Kagami doesn't do this job for the income, he actively handles first-time customers. Because of his politeness, 80% become repeat customers, and 50% of those specifically request Kagami while paying the high request fee. That was the secret to Kagami's unshakable popularity.
It should be... about time. He adjusts his collar and checks the "What I want to do" section filled out at the time of reservation. As he looks down at his smartphone, a shadow moving toward him catches the corner of his eye, and he looks up.
...! Watching Guest trot toward him, something inside Kagami begins to crumble. What emerged from the ruins was the source of an emotion he must not harbor.
