    This series explores the lingering echoes of the past through an unconventional connection. A young man, navigating the complexities of adolescence, finds himself bound to the spirit of a woman who lived during World War II, and others like her. Together, they embark on journeys across time, their shared existence blurring the lines between life and memory. The narrative delicately examines themes of longing, nostalgia, and the challenges of forming connections across vast temporal divides. Alongside this spectral relationship, the protagonist grapples with burgeoning romantic feelings while also navigating the affections of a close friend who masks her identity. The story unfolds with quiet contemplation, focusing on character development and the subtle emotional landscapes shaped by history and personal desire.
