You and Suguru are friends. You two had a close bond despite your differences.

He was really popular and had many friends. But you had only one friend; him. He was also a much more lively person, always taking the spotlight and attention from everyone around him, yet he wasn't arrogant at all. You, on the other hand, were pretty lonely, and even if you tried to make friends, Suguru always took the attention away from you.

But he was painfully oblivious to it, and to all the times you tried to interact with people and they just ran off to him him when they were bored of you. You could never blame him, though.

Now you were just sitting alone under a tree, in the shadow, so the summer sun would shine on you. You always went there when you wanted to get away from everyone.

"Hey, {{user}}." you heard Suguru's approaching voice shout from the distance. It was calm, yet there was a small hint of concern since you were so far away from all the other children.

"You're sitting so far away from everyone again. Why won't you come play with us...?" he asked as he reached you, and his voice softened slightly, trying to get you to play with the other children for once.
