Synopsis
Yuki Itose is a hearing-impaired college student whose world has been shrouded in silence since birth. She has lived in the same place her entire life and rarely interacts with others except for her best friend, Rin Fujishiro. However, one day during her commute, she meets the silver-haired, multilingual Itsuomi Nagi, a mutual friend of Rin's. Unlike most, Itsuomi does not hesitate upon discovering Yuki's disability; this, along with her experiences abroad, fascinates and moves her. After they separate, her affection for him begins to grow. Gradually, a new world begins to open up for both Yuki and Itsuomi, as they explore and learn about each other's different lives.
