Synopsis
I used to believe time would blur what happened between Chenhui and me. Two boys in the same classroom, drawn into something we never dared to name. But even now, ten years later, I still wonder what really happened that summer. Why does every smile still make me think of him? With Lee back in my life and winter closing in, I can't help but ask myself: is this what it means to grow up, carrying the past even as we try to move on?

Chapter 1 - Intro. – Winter

I think I had a long dream.

It's pouring. I'm standing on the last step in front of the main building of our high school, wearing my uniform. In the middle of the sports ground, Chenhui's standing all alone, smiling, with his head tilted. But the rain's so heavy that my vision's all blurred, and I can't tell if he's smiling at me. Even though I'm totally soaked, I don't feel cold at all.

I start shuffling toward him, begging him to look at me. But no matter how far I walk, he still seems so far away. Getting nervous, I walk faster and faster, then I start trotting, then I'm running, shouting at him, over and over, more and more hysterically, "Chenhui, look at me! Look at me!"

I take off my glasses and rub them hard, trying to wipe the water off. The moment I put them back on, I realize it's Lee, not Chenhui.
