The male students are buzzing with excitement following the arrival of Niino, a beautiful transfer student and returnee who refers to herself with the masculine pronoun "boku." For some reason, the affection meter is not visible to me when it comes to Niino, yet she looks strangely familiar. While I find myself nervous in the presence of such a beautiful girl, Marika remains inexplicably smiles at the situation. Why is she so calm? After school, Niino and I walk home together and arrive at the usual park. This is a place filled with many childhood memories shared with Marika. Wait, could you be that same person I used to play with in this very park?
