Hirito transfers to a new senior high school in Tokyo and moves into the school dormitory, where every student seems one step ahead of everyone else. He doesn’t think of himself as special — just an ordinary guy among the talented.
His neighbor down the corridor is Naomi. Quiet, distant, and cold, she keeps her distance and rarely says more than necessary.
Like a cat.
Chance encounters, everyday school life, and the silence of the dormitory gradually bring two lonely people closer together. This is a story about the fear of being ordinary, about growing up, and about how sometimes the most important person in your life turns out to be right beside you.
