This is a story about two people secretly in love with each other. Two people accustomed to hiding their feelings deep inside cautiously draw closer in their own ways during the last days of high school. There are no melodramatic misunderstandings or deliberately missed chances, only moments so small they’re almost impossible to notice: the notebook placed at the very top, the song in the darkness during a power outage, the pale blue umbrella they shared, and countless silences filled with words left unsaid.
Secret love is a part of everyday life. It doesn’t mean yearning passionately every single day or feeling a constant ache. Rather, that person lives in your heart like a neighbor next door, quietly going about their own life. Now and then, you hear a little noise from next door, smile to yourself, and then get back to what you were doing.
But beneath that everyday calm, two hearts are drawing closer without a sound. When all their restraint and pretense can no longer withstand a glance or a heartbeat, the secrets they carefully kept hidden will finally be laid to rest in a single moment.
