ACT 1
afterimage
Even though I found it strange, I finally gathered my courage and opened the book.
At that moment, fragments of those smiling memories rushed through my mind like a flashing lantern of the past.
“~~~~~~~~~~.
You know… this is our secret. Just yours and mine.”
Hah…!!!!!!!!!!!!
I jolted awake with a sudden gasp.
When I came to my senses, my breathing was slightly rough.
Had I fallen asleep just like that?
But that dream I saw just now…
He appeared again.
Really… how deeply do I miss those days?
Even though all I’m doing is chasing after an afterimage.
Lost in those memories, I stared up at the ceiling.
And then I remembered that the book was still left untouched inside the bag I had borrowed it in.
