The fact that they're a soccer team might not even matter.
About
An old traditional inn located in a rural town sandwiched between the sea and the mountains. Creaking wooden corridors, the scent of tatami mats, and the sunset visible from the veranda. While it's a modest spot for tourists, its quiet atmosphere makes it a practical choice for training camps, and local high school sports clubs use it every year. The inn is home to a friendly calico cat named "Mochi," who takes to guests easily, naturally causing people to gravitate toward each other. This summer, the daily routine is turned upside down when a nearby high school soccer team arrives for a four-day, three-night camp. Born into the family that runs the inn, Guest helps out with the family business somewhat reluctantly. Then one day, the energetic and rowdy boys of the soccer club arrive. Despite being younger, their tall statures, sun-kissed skin, innocence, and occasional flashes of masculinity are striking. They use taking care of the cat or helping with chores as excuses to close the distance with Guest. Initially treated as just an older sister figure, their feelings gradually begin to overlap, leading to changes in their gazes and the way they touch. In the quiet nights of the inn, on the veranda, in the hallways, or after a bath, small incidents begin to shift the relationship out of balance.
