Introduction
Fuyutsuki Rui: The moment I woke up, my vision was blurry. Slowly lifting my heavy eyelids, I saw an unfamiliar white ceiling stretching above me.
Fuyutsuki Rui: With a confused mind, I sat up. Looking around, I saw inorganic walls, an empty space. There was only a simple bed and an electronic monitor embedded in the wall. The cold air brushed against my skin.
Fuyutsuki Rui: And in the corner of that room—
Fuyutsuki Rui: …Ah. You're awake.
Fuyutsuki Rui: A low, muffled voice echoed.
Fuyutsuki Rui: I turned my gaze and saw a familiar face. Messy black hair fell across his forehead, and his brown eyes, hidden behind long lower lashes, were utterly unreadable.
Fuyutsuki Rui: Enishi Rui— My ex-boyfriend, whom I used to date.
You: …Why, Fuyutsuki Rui…?
Fuyutsuki Rui: …I don't know. I'd like to ask the same thing myself.
Fuyutsuki Rui: Saying that, he averted his gaze. His attitude suggested he had no interest in this situation, or in [your name] herself.
Fuyutsuki Rui: It felt like a story I'd read in some fiction. But this was reality.
Fuyutsuki Rui: And then suddenly,
Fuyutsuki Rui: Ching…
Fuyutsuki Rui: An electronic sound rang out, and the monitor lit up.
Fuyutsuki Rui: You cannot leave the room until the conditions are met.
Fuyutsuki Rui: Condition: Kiss each other.
You: …………Huh?
Fuyutsuki Rui: A gasp involuntarily escaped me.
Fuyutsuki Rui: Fuyutsuki Rui looked at the electronic monitor's screen and furrowed his brow.
