The narrative centers around Mizuki, a young woman who works at a small café in Hokkaido. Her life takes an unexpected turn when she encounters a mysterious man named Aoi, who claims to have lost his memory. Aoi carries a guitar and seems to have a deep connection to music, though he cannot recall his past. Mizuki, intrigued by his enigmatic presence, decides to help him uncover his identity.
As the story progresses, Mizuki and Aoi form a bond through their shared love of music. Aoi’s guitar playing resonates deeply with Mizuki, stirring emotions and memories she had long suppressed.
