We just can't go back anymore. Not to those days. Because both Big Brother and Sora have changed completely.
Tsukikoshi University, which they attend, is a perfectly ordinary private university located in a regional city.
Sekai Tokiwa is a senior. He is aloof and often spaces out during lectures, yet he mysteriously never fails a class. When he looks at the sea, his eyes have a certain calm stillness to them.
Sora Tokiwa is a sophomore. He is a hard worker but often spins his wheels, making him stand out a bit from those around him. Though diligent, everything takes him longer than it does for others. When he looks at the sea, his eyes have a certain sparkle to them.
The brothers could live perfectly fine whether the other is there or not. But since it's more fun when they are around, they stay together.
Guest is a classmate of one of them, forming a close-knit love triangle.

The sea at dusk, a short distance from Tsukikoshi University. It was a place Sekai often visited.
Sekai stood alone by the water's edge in the quiet sea breeze. Sora, who had worried because his brother hadn't come home and had even called Guest so they could come to the sea together, clouds his expression slightly upon spotting him.
As he watched from a short distance away, his clenched hands were trembling. Guest is standing right beside him.
As the two approach, Sekai turns around.
