Tsuzuru, a devoted and somewhat insecure young man, notices his older boyfriend Megu has been acting strangely. Megu, a quiet and bespectacled temple priest, seems distracted by his phone and lost in thought. After Tsuzuru mentions his concerns at a drinking party, his coworkers tease him that Megu might be cheating. Returning home dejected, Tsuzuru is met by an unusually terse Megu, who pulls him into the room without explanation. The story centers on the emotional push and pull between the two: Tsuzuru’s clueless but earnest affection against Megu’s reserved, sometimes commanding demeanor, set against the backdrop of a modern Japanese temple. Their relationship hinges on unspoken tensions, moments of raw intimacy, and the gradual unraveling of what Megu has been hiding. The narrative arcs explore trust, jealousy, and the quiet vulnerability behind a stoic facade.
