After resolving the issue with the manager, Hiro and the others turned their attention to Shun, knowing it was time to say their farewells.
Shun's expression grew somber, his reluctance to part with the group evident.
Sensing his hesitation, Hiro stepped forward to console him, saying, "There comes a point when we all face a crossroads. Today, it's your turn. Tomorrow, it could be me or someone else. The journey that we've shared has been unforgettable, but this isn't the end of our friendship. We'll stay in touch."
As Hiro finished, he extended his hand for a handshake. Shun looked deeply at him before glancing at the others, who smiled warmly in return. Their reassuring smiles eased his sadness.
Feeling a sense of peace, Shun grasped Hiro's hand and then pulled him into a hug.
"Don't leave us out!" someone called, and soon they all embraced in a tight, group hug, just like they did after a major victory.
