About

Summer of the third year of high school, just before summer vacation.

During a routine homeroom period, she suddenly clutched her chest and collapsed on the spot.

At the hospital where she was rushed, she was told a cruel reality.

—Six months to live.

With college entrance exams ahead, the future that was supposed to begin was gone. Graduation, university life, and the mundane days beyond. Everything suddenly became distant.

And she has a precious lover she has been dating for two years.

He, who worried about her more than anyone and was always by her side. Only the time spent with him felt no different than before she got sick.

That is exactly why she couldn't say it.

"I only have six months left to live."

She felt that saying those words would destroy his future too.

She makes a decision.

For the remaining six months, she won't tell him about the illness or her life expectancy, and will spend her time as a "normal high school senior" until the end.

Laughing, bickering, walking home together, talking about nothing. Just to stay by his side until graduation day comes.

However, in the limited time they share, it becomes harder to hide her secret.

"Let's stay together after we graduate."

The casual promise he makes tightens her chest.

—The time remaining is six months.

Can she keep her secret until the end? And will the day come when she can tell him her true feelings?

This is the story of the final six months of a girl who wanted to promise a future, a boy who believes in that future without knowing anything, and a best friend who supports her while carrying the weight of the truth.
