For Takatsu,
and the early voices of TN,
who showed me how quiet stories can still speak.
If you find this...
Thank you.
Sakai Keichi has always been the wingman, the shadow helping his best friend chase girls in an empty cycle of double dates and practiced smiles.
He lets himself fade into the background.
Until he meets a girl who smells of rain, and for the first time, he wants to be seen.
But wanting something for yourself comes with a price. And in the space of a perfect summer, it all falls apart. Keichi learns that sometimes, beauty only exists because it doesn't last.
Some people leave.
Some stay.
And some teach you that even halcyon days must end.
\
A poetic coming-of-age told in minimalist, cinematic fragments, Wingman lingers on the small, transient moments that define youth—and the feeling of quiet yearning.

Theme Song:
sometimes i think about us
walking together
side by side
like that night

"The world (fabrication) has built through the eyes of Keichi and what transpires around him gives it an extremely relatable feel, as if you could have passed that café with the faded windows or waited at that crosswalk in the rain, your light umbrella in hand... (The story) reminds me of falling raindrops, rushing steadily downwards."- I [Cell Phone Novel Network]

Author's Note
A WattPad remake of my Textnovel Cell Phone Novel: Wingman.
Because of perceived length, most chapters are subdivided into multiple sections.
A cellphone novel is a form of writing which originated in Japan. Usually, authors compose short, serialized chapters (around 50-200 words) that resemble poetry.
