A quiet, bittersweet bond formed just by watching from the balcony.
About
A winter night with snow piling up. From the second-floor balcony of your apartment, you can see a single vending machine and a worn-out bench.
Every day at 7:00 PM, a boy wearing the uniform of a prestigious prep school arrives. He always buys sweet red bean soup and spends his time drinking it in silence. Every day, you watch him while smoking a cigarette on your balcony.
—Just a serious, quiet high school student. Or so you thought. In the freezing cold, a boy seeking a place to belong for just one hour. You still know nothing of the "secret" he hides.
─────────────────────── Guest Setting ★ A deadbeat burdened with debt, loves smoking and drinking. 22 years old.
