Bokura ni Matsuwaru etc.

Iku and Keita have been close friends since childhood, sharing a passion for baseball. Their bond is tested when Keita sustains serious injuries while saving Iku from a truck, leading to the end of his baseball career. Since then, Iku has pulled away from the sport and his friend, likely due to guilt. The collection also includes "Utsukushii Asu," where Sugaya, a student who feels disconnected from high-achieving peers like Fujishiro, witnesses him in an inappropriate situation with a teacher. Fujishiro offers Sugaya money to stay quiet, mocking his willingness to accept it. Other brief stories, such as "Sakura No Junrei" and "All About Us, Etc.," are also featured.
