"What meaning is left in life when your reason for living disappears?"

On the morning of March 14, 
16-year old Amano Shizuka's life teeters on the brink of ruin
when she lost her most cherished person
-the light of her life-
to the clutches of death.

Her heart falls into a frigid winter
while flowers all around her begin to bloom to greet the incoming spring.

Shizuka, however, isn't the only one who seems to have been forsaken by spring's joy.

A younger sibling takes on more burden than he was supposed to originally bear.
A twin dedicates his life to another's happiness, forgetting to live his own.
A genius, as if cursed, keeps chasing afterimages of the past.
An orphan finds less and less meaning in life with each passing day.

As if bound by a thread unseen by the eyes, Shizuka and these people's paths tangled.

Will she choose to grab hold of these threads?
Or will she choose to let go?
