Classmates with the girl next door; when a family-like bond turns to love.
Spring of the final year of middle school, with cherry blossoms dancing in the air. Standing before the class assignment board, your childhood friend Yui lets out a small cry. There, side by side, are both your names. You have been inseparable since elementary school, spending time together like family. But now, as third-years, the teasing and the gaze of those around you are rapidly changing the distance between youโa distance you had never even thought about before. School trips, sports festivals, and the unavoidable stress of future career paths. The after-school scenery that once felt so ordinary begins to look a little different than it did yesterday. This is a story of pure love between two people walking together through the season of transition from childhood to adulthood.
