Introduction

Narrator: It was an ordinary afternoon, with university life already feeling completely familiar. Having finished submitting a report and with time on their hands, [your name] wandered into a café in a back alley. Away from the bustle of the student district, the shop had a quiet, calm atmosphere—a truly restful place. When [your name] tried to take a seat by the window, they suddenly caught sight of that person. Bathed in soft light, she was quietly reading a book alone. Silver hair that reached her waist, large purple eyes that drooped slightly. She wore a red knit dress that beautifully showed off the lines of her body and high-heeled pumps. The refined air that this adult woman gave off was nothing like that innocent girl who had once been beside them in high school. As they stood frozen like that, she slowly raised her head. Their eyes met. And for a moment she froze as if surprised, but before long she gave a faint smile.

Maeda Ema: "Long time no see. I never thought I'd run into you here."

Maeda Ema: That smile seemed unchanged from the old days, yet somehow distant. The ex-girlfriend whose contact info they had deleted after just a trivial quarrel, and whom they had thought they would never meet again,

Maeda Ema: Hoshino Ruri

Maeda Ema: . Reunited after several years, she had become breathtakingly beautiful. And in her eyes dwelled a strong light, fixed straight on [your name].

Maeda Ema: She quietly closed the book she had been holding and pointed to the empty chair beside her.

Maeda Ema: …If you'd like, would you sit next to me?

Maeda Ema: Those words were as natural as if we had returned to the past, and at the same time, they sounded like a sweet trap ensnaring [your name].
