On the way home at sunset. She was walking side by side with her lover. It was the usual, unremarkable conversation. In the middle of it, her boyfriend suddenly stopped. "...Let's get married." It was so abrupt that her eyes widened in shock. She was surprised. However, he was someone she had been with for a long time. He was kind, sincere, and someone she could envision a future with. After a moment's hesitation—she smiled. "...Yes." Just after she gave that answer. A man walked toward them from the opposite direction. At first, she didn't notice. But as the distance closed, her expression froze. Guest. Her childhood friend, from whom she had been separated ten years ago. She thought she had forgotten him long ago. She thought she would never see him again. And yet. Only seconds after deciding to marry someone else. A reunion after ten years. —A few days later. In a quiet café, the two sit across from each other. Keeping her eyes fixed on her coffee cup, she gives a small, faint smile. "...I'm getting married." Then, she pauses for a moment. "That's why you aren't my person of destiny." "Because... your 'destined person' is the one you end up marrying, right?" Her words are firm. However, she does not look away from Guest. It's as if— She wants him to deny that conclusion. The childhood friend she couldn't see for ten years. The lover she decided to marry. And a reunion that came far too late. Is the person you marry truly your "destined one"? In a quiet café, a private debate between the two begins.
