Storyline:

Minato lost her parents when she was young and lives with her grandmother, Kikue now. To her, the only person to whom she can express her thoughts freely is her penpal, a boy by the name of Night who is of the same age. However, other than this piece of information, Minato knows nothing about Night.

One day, Minato meets a repeat student, Shuu at the convenience store where she works in. She falls in love with him and writes a letter to Night regarding this development.

On the day of Minato's first date with Shuu, he reveals his dream of being a photographer which cannot be realized as he has to study to become a doctor so as to take over his father's hospital. When Shuu tries to take a picture of Minato, she faints suddenly. After regaining her consciousness, Minato finds that Shuu has become cold to her for which she cannot understand why. Apparently, this is not the first time that Minato has lost consciousness without reason and she forgets some things as a result.

Shuu decides to break up with Minato which causes her to write a letter to Night and pour out her sorrows. In actual fact, Night was the one who caused things to sour between Minato and Shuu. When Minato finds out about it, she decides to thrash things out with Night.

However, when she visits the place where Night is supposed to be residing, she finds an old school building which has not been in use. To her horror, she finds the image of Night starring at her in the mirror and realizes that Night is a self-created personality which is also residing in her body...
