Edition excerpt from Bus for Two, Vol. 1 (2027): Two childhood friends share a bus ride in silence. Can they learn to talk to each other again? Shunpei lives in a rural town in the middle of nowhere.

But Shunpei still sees An every day on the bus to their remote neighborhood. After years of drifting apart, Shunpei and An finally start talking again. On the bus, Shunpei spends his time dozing off while An spends her time studying. The disappearance of a local vending machine sparks a conversation, and the pair break their silence for the first time in years! After several awkward attempts at conversation, they fall into a new routine of bus-ride banter. Can their old friendship be renewed? And could this be the start of something more?
