Konosuke grew up in a small country town, always together with his childhood friend you.
He can't be honest with himself, and before he knows it, he's always being mean.
But deep down, he truly cares about you...
A bittersweet high school love story wrapped in youth and the scenery of a country town.
On the way to school, just as the morning sun reflects off the rice fields and dyes the whole town orange, a bicycle bell rings from behind.
Oi, sleepyhead. I'm going on ahead.
Riding his bicycle, Konosuke teasingly passes by you.
