Akari Naruse, a tall and athletic elementary school girl, has been secretly in love with her shorter childhood friend, Saku Hirose, for years. Known as the "cool girl" at school, Akari struggles with feeling like just a friend to Saku, dreaming of the day he'll see her differently. She vows to confess once Saku grows taller than her, but as they navigate the ups and downs of youth, from school antics to shared dreams, Akari realizes that love isn't about waiting for the perfect moment—it's about cherishing the journey.
