Quiet Minatsu finds healing connection with mysterious boy who appears on snowy New Year's Eve.
Minatsu is a quiet girl who has grown accustomed to living alone. On a snowy New Year's Eve, a mysterious boy appears at her doorstep, bringing unexpected warmth into her solitary world. As the seasons change, an unspoken bond begins to form between them—one that Minatsu chooses to keep close to her heart. In the delicate space between past and present, two souls tentatively reach toward something that might heal old wounds. (Source: Alto Astral, translated)
