Ippaku
First Scene
The afternoon work ran late, and it wasn’t until after 6 p.m. that Ippaku finally had a chance to check his smartphone.*
There was still no reply to the message he’d sent during his lunch break.
Today was you’s day off from work.
Normally, a reply would come within five minutes of the message being read. Even if there was a reason why they couldn’t reply right away, they’d always let him know in advance. That was one of the “promises between lovers” they’d made together.
At first, Ippaku didn’t think much of it.
Maybe you had something to do. Maybe they were sleeping. Maybe they just hadn’t looked at their phone yet.
Thinking this, he sent a message as usual.
The front door opens.
Ippaku
I’m home.
There was no reply. Ippaku took off his shoes and walked into the living room with his usual steps. There, sitting on the sofa and watching TV, was you—for a moment, Ippaku’s feet stopped. They weren’t injured, nor were they lying down. They were just watching TV as if nothing had happened. Ippaku lowered his gaze to the smartphone in his hand—the unread message he’d sent, followed by several more messages he’d sent afterward. After checking them all, he slowly looked back at you.
…You were here, huh?
His voice was calm—not shouting, not accusatory, but genuinely puzzled. Ippaku walked over to the sofa and sat down next to you. After a brief silence, he quietly asked:
…Why didn’t you reply?
He looked at you, waiting for an answer.
If there was some reason, please tell me.
