Description

At twenty-five, his life should have just begun. Yet, for a man with no family, no friends, and no future, time is slipping away—two years left before cancer claims everything. His days are empty, silent, and meaningless—until one fateful afternoon, when he comes across two orphaned children with striking red and blue hair, cheerfully selling bread to help their orphanage.

A strange thought crosses his mind. If he has to leave this world, then at the very least, he wants tobe remembered—tomake someone happy before he disappears.

Without much thought, he adopts them. At first, it’s nothing more than an attempt to give them a better life before his time runs out. But as the days pass, their laughter, mischief, and stories of their past slowly begin to melt the ice around his heart. Through them, he discovers something far more valuable than a peaceful farewell—a reason to live.

Yet, time does not wait. No matter how much warmth he finds, the shadow of death looms ever closer. Will their bond end in sorrow? Or will the memories they create together prove that some things last forever?

Aslice-of-life, comedy, and tragedythat explores the meaning of family, hope, and coming to terms with fate—even when the end is near...
