The protagonist is trapped in a long, suffocating night of youth. There, he meets a gentle boy who understands all his brokenness, restraint, and shame, the only light in the darkness who comes running toward him. He sinks into this rare affection, believing he has found the beloved who crossed a sea of people to reach him. Until the truth slowly comes to light: the boy he gave his heart to was never anyone else, but...
The love was real, the tenderness was real, and so were the loneliness and pain. In the blue hour between day and night, rain and mist spread across the city as two versions of "him" head toward an inevitable fate.
