However, on her 17th birthday, her life begins to change around her. On top of school events getting cancelled due to a pandemic, her relationships with her four friends change when Kizuki declares his love for her. Though Mizuho wants their friendships to remain the same, she is forced to confront her feelings as her friends begin to reveal who they are in love with.
Part of the narrative is also interspersed with Mizuho celebrating her 27th birthday in 2030, 10 years in the future. The narrative slowly reveals the career paths of each character, as well as Mizuho's current relationship with each of her childhood friends.
