  • 東京の心臓部にあるギョウザの香りが漂う繁華街。そのど真ん中にある、ゲーム好きたちが集まる神聖な場所、ゲームセンター。そして、その複雑で広大な迷路のような扉を開けて入ったばかりの二人の友達、リナとタカシ。

    In the bustling district in the heart of Tokyo where the scent of gyoza fills the air, lies a sacred place where avid gamers gather - the game center. Just inside the complex and expansive maze-like doors of this place, entered two friends, Lina and Takashi.

  • リナは気の強い女子で、よく笑い、タカシに気を遣わない性格。一方、タカシは、控えめな男子で、彼はリナが好きだが、まだ気持ちを言葉に出来ていない。

    Lina is a strong-willed girl, often laughing, not bothering to take care of Takashi's feelings. On the other hand, Takashi is a modest boy who likes Lina but hasn't been able to express his feelings in words yet.

  • 「よーし、じゃあこのゲームから始めよう!」リナが指を指し、二人は夢中で遊び始めた。ゲーム機の光と音、周りの人々の声、あれよあれよという間に時間は経っていった。しかし、いつの間にか二人はゲームセンターの中で出口を探せなくなった。

    "Alright, let's start with this game!" Lina pointed her finger, and the two became engrossed in playing. With the lights and sounds of the gaming machines, the voices of people around them, time passed in the blink of an eye. However, before they knew it, the two were unable to find the exit in the game center.

  • 「リナ、俺たち、迷ったみたいだよ」とタカシが少し動揺した声で言った。リナはゲームに興奮し、迷うことなど考えもしなかった。

    "Takashi, it seems we're lost," Takashi said with a slightly nervous voice. Excited about the game, Lina didn't even consider getting lost.

  • 「大丈夫、タカシ。きっと出口はあるはずだから」と優しく声をかけつつ、周囲を観察し始めた。夜のゲームセンターは、幾重にも重なる音と光で、まるで未来都市のようだった。

    "It's okay, Takashi. There must be an exit somewhere," Lina said gently while beginning to observe their surroundings. The night-time game center, with its myriad of sounds and lights, felt like a city of the future.

  • 時間が経つにつれ、タカシの冷汗は止まず、しかしリナは冷静さを保っていた。「私たち、協力すれば必ず出口を見つけられる」と思ったリナは、そこで気づいた。「こういう状況だからこそ共に乗り越えれば、もしかしてタカシの気持ちを理解できるのでは?」と。

    As time passed, Takashi's cold sweat didn't stop, but Lina kept her cool. Thinking that if they worked together in this situation, they might be able to understand Takashi's feelings, Lina realized: "Perhaps by facing this situation together, I can understand Takashi's feelings?"

  • 一方、タカシもリナの優しさに触れ、この状況だからこそ勇気を出して告白するべきだと考えた。

    Meanwhile, Takashi was touched by Lina's kindness and thought that in this situation, he should gather his courage to confess his feelings.

  • 迷子になり、疲れ、心が折れそうになる中、遂にリナとタカシは出口を見つけた。そこでタカシは勇気を振り絞り、「リナ、実は僕、君のことが・・・」と言葉を始めた。しかし、リナはタカシを止め、「私も、タカシ。私も好きよ」と先に言葉を飛ばした。

    Lost, tired, and on the brink of giving up, finally Lina and Takashi found the exit. There, Takashi gathered his courage and started, "Lina, I actually...". But Lina interrupted him, "I feel the same way, Takashi. I like you too," she said, jumping ahead with her words.

  • 出口とは、二人にとってたった一つの出口だけでなく、新たな愛のスタートラインでもあった。

    The exit was not just an exit for the two but also a starting line for a new love.
