   Summary

   Harumasa and Wise marry out of convenience given the former’s special circumstances. But, while one strives to live in the present and seize every day, the other makes sacrifices to plan for the future. As both struggle against time to navigate their feelings and fulfill promises to each other, they have yet to realize that love may not flow in a forward direction like fate, but rather, in reverse.
