About the Game

A story woven with the sound of rain, poetic text, and gentle narration... A short visual novel where you can spend a relaxing moment in your own place, with time to yourself, where no one will disturb you, no one will come barging in.

---Prologue---

I want my own place, with time to myself, where no one will disturb me, no one will come barging in.

I want my own time, my own place, where no one would disturb me, no one would come in here.

How lovely it would be if it were... a pleasant evening, with a fine gentle rain outside, in late May or June, surrounded by plants and their soft, natural aroma.

It could be a small, secretive café.
