This book tells the story of three women's intertwined lives over thirty years. Ever since they can remember, Yuri and Satoko have been the best playmates in the group. One day in the second grade of elementary school, they suddenly became estranged... After entering middle school, Satoko kept company with bad boys all day long, while Yuri met her good friend Maho, who was beautiful but was burdened with misfortune. In the winter of her second year in middle school, Yuri stabbed a man who wanted to commit violence against Maho, and the two of them fled in a hurry. The next morning, Yuri learned that Riko was taken away by the police as a murderer, but she did not tell the truth. Time passed like this... What happened to Yuri, Satoko, and Maho? What makes them sometimes close and sometimes far apart, but still "important friends"?
