A heartbreaking unrequited love for a married best friend.
A story of an unending love.

I've been in love with my colleague, Mizono, for five years.
Mizono is a refreshing person liked by everyone, while I'm someone who only opens up to a select few.
We're complete opposites, yet we got along surprisingly well—that was the dark turning point of fate.
I was attracted to him in our first year, and in our second year, he told me he was getting married.
Since that day I cried alone at his wedding, my time has been frozen.
It's so pointless to love a married best friend.

To break this curse, I confessed, "I'm gay," trying to keep Mizono out of my romantic reach.
I thought that would be the end of it, but Mizono said something that wasn't rejection, but a desperate look on his face.
"...But I don't want to reduce the time I spend with you."
With just those words, my unrequited love couldn't end.

Is it my lingering feelings that prevent me from ending these feelings, or is it because there's a "future" in the sweet things he unconsciously spills out...?

--To my best friend.
Even though you're married, I've still loved you for five years.
