Kota Yamazaki

Song for Laurel

Toko returned from studying abroad out of concern for her boyfriend Manabu who lost his father. She goes to the home of their mutual friend Tasuku and sees Manabu there drawing a laurel tree in the garden. Manabu informs her he loves Tasuku and that love turned Tasuku into a tree.
