His reason. His purpose. His light. That was everything Shinya meant to him, even in such a short amount of time knowing each other. Even if all the time Shinya simply always pushed him away, Kinjou was happy

He started swimming just so he could be beside Shinya. That was all Kinjou wanted

Dear god, was that so hard to ask?

One day in sixth grade, Shinya suddenly moved places with his family. It was so sudden. He didn't even say goodbye to Kinjou. As a kid, Kinjou was of course angry and hurt. He thought of Shinya as his friend

But that was foolish of him, Shinya didn't care about him did he? He almost forgot, that he simply forced himself onto Shinya

That was the day Kinjou changed. He kept swimming, he joined countless tournaments until now he's in college. He was known as Japan's best swimmer and the closest to an internal record. Yet somehow, with all the competitions he joined. Why? Why can't he still meet Shinya? Why can't their paths still meet?

Oh dear Kinjou. When will you come to realize? You can't keep looking for love in the same place you lost it
