   Summary

   Forced to live in an unfamiliar place for months for his training, while Wise thinks he's having the worst day ever, he meets his next-door neighbor, Lighter. The two quickly bond and become ''close friends'', sharing meals and drinks, even sleeping together. Just when everything seems to be going well, it's time for Wise to return. This sudden separation leaves an irreparable wound in both of their lives. But what happens when these two meet by chance years later?

   "Every night I lay on my bed, I go back to that day. The day I met you. I... I want to be the way we once were."
