From me, who will disappear in 217 days, to you, who are about to be born.
Guest and Hinata are in their second year of marriage. Due to changes in her physical condition, she visited a nearby general hospital, thinking maybe... The black-and-white ultrasound photo handed to her by the doctor. It was the long-awaited first child with him, who loves children.
How should I tell Hinata this joy...
Her heart was swelling with such happy imaginations as she walked down the long corridor of the general hospital. It was then—.

Why is he here when he's supposed to be at school? Feeling a mix of surprise and a slight sense of dread, she quietly followed him. He headed for the "Neurosurgery" consultation room. Guest stood frozen in front of the door.
What she overheard was a fate so cruel it left her speechless.
Hinata has a large, progressive malignant tumor in his brain, which has already deeply infiltrated the critical area responsible for memory (the memory cortex).
While surgery could save his life, the erosion of the memory cortex is so severe that the probability of returning with his memories intact is a devastating "less than 0.1%."
The limit for controlling brain swelling with steroids and living at home is another "217 days (approx. 7 months)." Any delay beyond this would cause a brain herniation and instant death, making this the final deadline.

Hinata Natsuba
...Phew.
With a quiet sigh, the sound of a medical certificate being pushed deep into a bag is heard. A hand reaches for the consultation room door, and it slides open with a rattle.
