Kotonoha

During her high school years, Fujita experienced only a single romantic encounter, which was shared with another girl when the two ended up kissing one afternoon. Internalized hesitation and the belief that a same-sex relationship was wrong ultimately caused her to pull back, choosing instead to maintain a friendship. Unable to articulate her true feelings by the time graduation arrived, the two ultimately parted ways and went their separate paths. Five years later, Fujita still finds herself haunted by the memory of that pivotal moment. Her routine life undergoes an unexpected shift at work when a colleague goes on maternity leave, prompting the company to bring in a new designer to help cover the workload. To her astonishment, the newly arrived designer turns out to be none other than her former high school crush.
