That winter, a day when white snow was piling up.

-Handol Bookstore-
Perhaps because the number of people increased after the reconciliation with Wonwoo, their lives went more smoothly.
We went to the bookstore and the hospital in groups of two or three, changing our group every day.
When the streets could no longer be rosy, and spring was finally fading, Yeoju finished her story. She collected a small number of books, compiled through her bookstore experience, and shared them with Seungcheol, Jisoo, and Wonwoo.
One of the remaining two was placed next to the sleeping Jeonghan.
여주
.. Jeonghan-ah
In Jeonghan's hospital room, Yeoju was reading a book alone.
여주
I think it would be better if you read this book yourself rather than me reading it to you.
여주
Because, this book -..
Even though she was asleep, it was difficult to face her and speak directly. Yeoju closed her eyes tightly and spat out.
여주
Because I wrote down my feelings for you.
여주
Because it was released for a very long time.
여주
Please, you read it. Jeonghan-ah-..
-Handol Bookstore-
여주
Wow, it really is summer. It's so hot.
승철
It's steaming, steaming...
원우
Let's read a book. .. huh?
As Wonwoo took out a book between the two who were feeling hot, a neatly folded piece of paper fell out from between the books.
승철
Oh, that book is something Kang Yeo-ju treasures.
원우
.. No, the book isn't important. What's with this note?
여주
..we never put anything like that in there?
The rather surprised female lead went to Wonwoo's side and opened the note together.
The two of them read the contents of the note, rolling their eyes diligently.
여주
.... Seungcheol, quickly go to the bookshelf - look through every single book in the third row from the top.
승철
..uh ?
여주
hurry..!
Seungcheol was flustered, but he immediately followed Yeoju's words.
When Seungcheol looked through the books, he found a note in one of the books on the third row.
Seungcheol read the note and ran straight to Yeoju to show her the contents.
The three of them searched through the bookshelf, using the notes they had found first as hints, and found books, and there were notes of paper stuck in between each book.
여주
...read from the first one?
승철
...huh
The heroine took a deep breath and unfolded a note.
여주
.. To. My dear friends. Hello, I'm Jeonghan. This will probably be my first letter, right? I don't really have anything to say, but I'm sorry for suddenly leaving town in high school. I was worried I'd worry you all.
여주
You guys are strong without me, so don't worry. You have to be happy in the future without me. Got it? Ps. The second note is the 4th line from the top of Da-3!
여주
.... -Jeonghan.
The female protagonist's voice began to tremble as if emotions were gradually building up in her.
From then on, every letter the heroine read was filled with Jeonghan's story. How he enjoyed fireworks through the window on cloudy days during his illness, how his life was repeatedly threatened by side effects, how he missed us so desperately.
There were so many more painful stories than I expected, and in the last letter-
여주
.. Ps. The moon is really pretty, heroine.
There was also a small confession included.
