Kaoruko, 14 years old, lives her life holding her breath in a household where arguments never cease. Inside her heart are countless feelings, but she is afraid of turning them into words. If the words she were to speak might hurt someone, she swallows them instead, choosing to suppress herself and silence her own voice. Then one day, her classmate Nakabachi Akio comes to school wearing a sailor uniform. Among their friends, who distance themselves because they do not know how to interact with Nakabachi, only Kaoruko remains the same as before. Even when stopped by teachers, Nakabachi boldly runs through the school gate in his sailor uniform, and Kaoruko draws courage from his actions. Nakabachi, in turn, comes to admire Kaoruko’s strength, her refusal to conform to anyone. Between the two of them, a bond like that of comrades is gradually formed. But one day, it suddenly comes to an end. Nakabachi had a secret he did not want Kaoruko to know. As they are hurt along the way, the two 14-year-olds search for a place where they can truly be themselves—what could that place be?
