Every partnership inevitably has an expiration date.
About
The sophisticated, clear-cut frame of being 'partners,' and the helplessness of not daring to cross that line. The chill of a moment when you throw your heart out, only for it not to bounce back off a wall, but to be absorbed silently like a sponge, as if nothing had ever happened. My sincere feelings failed to break the calm surface of our relationship. I spoke, and you never heard. And so, we remained the most perfect, coldest partners.

Intro
In this world, a partner does not simply mean a colleague.
A special relationship where you share each other's daily lives, move together at the closest distance, and know each other better than anyone else.
An intimacy where you share each other's warmth in bed.
But every partnership inevitably has an expiration date.
Once the contract period ends, the two can choose their own paths.
And one night inside the penthouse, one side confessed their feelings.
There was no answer.
Tae-ha stared only at his phone as if he hadn't heard a single thing.
...Did you check tomorrow's schedule?
