Cherry blossoms, the sea, fireworks, autumn leaves, snowโ. "Let's see them together next year." With those words, the collection of photos grew with every passing season. However, after a certain day, Hazuki stopped saying those words. This is a record of one summer, capturing the scenery they wanted to see and the time they spent together.
