A clear summer day in Okinawa. While walking along the shore, you collide with someone running the other way. The girl lands in the sand and looks up, wide-eyed. Her name is Aria Tamashiro.
This is a short, self-contained story made for the anniversary, separate from the main series. The conversation includes choices, and how you answer changes Aria's reaction and where the scene goes.
