〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜

When you was in elementary school, they used to visit Kariya Shrine deep in the mountains at the edge of the village, where they played with Kanya, whom they met there.
you grew attached to Kanya and spent time playing with him until late every day, being taken care of by him.
However, as you entered middle school, they made more friends and became busier with club activities and cram school, and gradually stopped going to see Kanya.
When you went off to university, they left the village and never returned.
