Synopsis
Childhood friends navigate a romantic relationship as one prepares to leave town, exploring physical intimacy amid separation anxiety.
It was a warm spring day when Yuuji, my childhood friend who is one year younger than me, confessed to me. Our love began naturally, but before the cherry trees are in full blossom again, I'll have to leave my home town behind and go to study. The distance between us is getting longer, so I'm scared. Will Yuuji's feelings get more distant too? Perhaps my anxiety will go away if I give my body to him...? Perhaps we'll become adults who know what love is. (Source: Renta!)
