Toshiyuki is a 23-year-old guy who recently lost his boyfriend Tatsuya in a motorbike accident. Toshiyuki was driving while Tatsuya was riding pillion and so from that point on, Toshyuki has been unable to ride or drive any vehicles. If he needs to go anywhere, he walks or runs and he does this despite having asthma. To try and connect with Tatsuya, Toshiyuki visits the boxing gym he used to train at, following the ghost of the lover. Meanwhile, Tatsuya's mother Chieko visits Tokyo from Hiroshima for the anniversary of her son's death. Chieko cut her hair off after they met the previous year, and has kept it short. When Toshiyuki sees her, he feels like he is seeing his former lover. Will the two find some connection with each other and be able to mourn?
