Synopsis
Kousei rescues scarred stranger "Mori"; their growing bond faces threats from his hidden past.
When Kousei Matsumoto finds a man collapsed on the street, apparently suffering from heatstroke, he takes him in despite his reservations. The mysterious stranger bears unexplained scars and speaks only the name "Mori" when asked about his past. As Kousei offers shelter and care, an unexpected bond begins to form between the two men. But the stranger's hidden history threatens to shatter their fragile connection, forcing both to confront difficult truths about themselves and what it means to truly belong somewhere. Can a chance encounter between two lonely souls lead to something lasting, or will the shadows of the past prove too powerful to overcome? (Source Digital Manga)
