Under the cherry blossom tree at Sakuragaoka High School Entrance Ceremony, Miou Aida meets Haruki Serizawa for the first time.
“My name is Miou and it means beautiful cherry blossom.”
“I’m Haruki. It stands for sparkling spring.”
As spring babies, they both feel an unexplainable connection.
Ever since that day, their eyes chased after each other.
Miou, who is in the arts club, is reserved, while Haruki, who is part of the movies club, is active and very social.
Despite their completely different personalities, they found themselves walking home together after school every day.
While many mistook them as a couple, their relationship remained a little more than friends, but not yet a couple.
Even as their feelings for each other grows stronger…
As they stop to sit on the steps of a deck on their walk home, Miou cannot help but ask,
“Haruki…do you like anyone?”
Haruki replies,
“I do like someone…what about you?”
Just 10 centimeters between their hands.
It’s just 10 centimeters, but the distance remains…
