Synopsis
Two broken men—ex-pianist Kishimoto and depressed Kiriya—find solace in a physical relationship that may evolve into something deeper.
After an accident, Kishimoto was forced to give up his dream of becoming a pianist. After his lover dumped him, Kiriya found himself spiraling into depression. The two bonded over their unhappiness, and before they knew it they'd developed a physical relationship. But could this diversion go in an unexpected direction? (Source: 801 Media)
