Synopsis
Hagiwara's relationship with his live-in girlfriend has gone quiet. His colleague Nakarai is silently in love with the childhood friend he lives with. A mis-sent email starts an anonymous exchange between them, and the honesty they cannot manage at home pours out in writing. Then comfort turns into something that could upend both their lives.
