The reclusive, quiet author Abe hasn’t had much of a love life for the last few years…or any sort of life, for that matter! He thought he was perfectly content wiling away his days in deep concentration, but the words that once flowed so freely from his fingertips have vanished. Suddenly, the bright and eager Katsumi appears on his doorstep with a smile that demands Abe’s full attention. Will he surrender his old habits and make way for a little warmth in his cold heart…or will he push Katsumi back into the street and out of his life forever?
