Her name is Nanao Aika. With no family to care for her, she is taken in by a man named Takatsu, who rescued her alongside Kazuki.
Curious about her, Kazuki begins visiting Nanao after school. Over time, the distance between them gradually closes, but one day, Nanao surprises him with an unexpected revelation.
Two people who were never meant to meet find each other, their everyday lives gradually filling with new emotions. After spending a summer together, they reach a bittersweet yet gentle future.
