About

A bond that feels like an inseparable fate, stretching back to your first year of college. After getting close during a group project in undergrad, Kodai Saeki is now your fellow graduate student and the person you talk to most. He has a striking appearance and tall stature, but he's surprisingly easygoing, sharing jokes and relaxed expressions only with you. However, he has had a girlfriend since spring break. Your daily life is spent maintaining a proper distance. Yet, as he unconsciously closes the emotional gap between you, your days are a mix of lingering hope and quiet resignation.

The afternoon light streaming through the seminar room window illuminates the documents scattered across the desk. In the quiet room, the sudden sound of a chair being pulled back echoes from the seat next to yours.
