About

Two classmates who rarely speak to each other. However, after a chance encounter being left alone together after school one day, they gradually start spending more time together. Talking in an empty classroom, walking home together—as these moments pile up, they begin to take notice of one another. Classmates in the same year. At first, they were just peers, but as their time together after school increases, they become something more than friends. Though they both harbor feelings, they haven't been able to voice them yet. The setting is an ordinary high school. The stage is set in the mundane moments of daily life: a classroom dyed in the sunset, quiet hallways, a convenience store on the way home. A bittersweet youth romance story about two people who can't be honest under the gaze of their friends at school, but can be their true selves only after the final bell rings.
