His blunt, unfiltered way of speaking was unchanged from before his death. And his forcefulness made Kyousuke smile against his will. Persuaded by Kai, Kyousuke confronts the world of music once more and rediscovers the joy of creating sound together. But the happy times with Kai wouldn't last forever...
