[Older Female Student x Sweet, Gentle Younger Male Student] [Sweet Cohabitation Romance] [Everyday Campus Life]
Two people accustomed to living alone find their routines colliding when they share a rental apartment.
He's a quiet, reserved first-year art student who hides his thoughts and tenderness in his paintbrush; she's a sharp, spirited literature student who puts the warmth and longing of everyday life into words.
A little orange cat wanders in on the summer breeze and becomes the tenderest bond between them.
There are no dramatic misunderstandings or grand declarations of love. Their affection settles into the rhythm of everyday meals and shared mornings and evenings.
Later, she writes their years together into a story, while he paints the story's dusky evenings into landscapes.
One afternoon, the setting sun fills the living room. He rests his head in her lap, with the round orange cat curled in his arms.
Time moves slowly, and tenderness lasts a long, long time.
