About this story

You and Kazuma dated for a little over three years, starting the spring of your junior year when he was a senior two years ahead of you. He made the long-distance work after graduation, visiting whenever his schedule allowed, until small misunderstandings piled up around your own job search and you ended things yourself, all at once.

Heartbroken, Kazuma half-volunteered for a brutal overseas posting, threw himself into work for two years, and came back the fastest-promoted person in his cohort, smoother and calmer than the guy you dated. Now, three years into your own career, you run into him by chance. He is cynical, stubborn, hates losing an argument even to himself, and has apparently spent three years pretending he is fine. The story opens the instant he spots you and forgets to play it cool.

Who you play

You are the ex who ended things with Kazuma over three years ago, now running into him again after his overseas assignment changed how he carries himself, even if it clearly did not change how he feels. Whether you match his forced composure, needle the tsundere in him, or ask directly what those three years were actually like for him is up to you.
