As children, Momo taught Nino the joy of singing from her heart. When Momo suddenly moved away, Nino found herself lost, until she met Yuzu. He shared his musical gifts with her until he suddenly vanished, too, leaving nothing but the memory of his music. Before disappearing, Momo and Yuzu said the same thing- that she promises to keep singing because that was how they’d find her. As the trio starts high school, their paths cross again. And while Nino has kept her promise, Momo and Yuzu are marching to the beat of their own drum.
