Note from author

[Harmonic Future]

This story feel harmonic at first, ignoring the brewing problem behind the scenes. With Yui seeing all of the positive aspects because it's her first time in the city, Haruto can only see the negative aspects because he lived there his whole life. The difference in views, creates an unexpected clash. Sometimes a Harmonic Future may not be Harmonic to everyone. Story takes a darker approach to it.

Personal note: I don't really read sci-fi stories usually so this is my best attempt at trying. I would like to personally apologize for posting all at once. I honestly found out last minute this contest was here and I heard new submission are acceptable by 13th January so I went for it. Honestly though, I cried because I thought to myself, what am I going to do with less than week? I ended up randomly listening to those GYM motivational speech on tiktok that basically blames you for not going for it so I decided to just do it.
