Information

Description

During the winter, Yuichi was hospitalized due to hepatitis. Randomly he would try to escape from the hospital but would get beat up by the nurse. One day, he happened to meet Rika, a girl of his age, in the next building. He was fascinated by her beauty, but she was very selfish girl. Although she led him by the nose, he began to be attracted by her. However, when Rika told him about her illness, he knew why she acted so selfish; she didn’t have long to live.

Der 17 Jahre alte Yuuichi muss wegen einer Hepatitis mehrere Monate untätig im Krankenhaus verbringen. Vor lauter Langeweile nutzt er jede Gelegenheit, aus dem Krankenhaus zu fliehen – unter Missachtung des strengen Verbots durch die Krankenschwester Akiko. Diese bietet dem Jungen schließlich an, ihm mehr Freiheiten zu gewähren, falls er eine gleichaltrige Patientin namens Rika ein wenig aufmuntern würde. Denn Rika leidet unter einem Herzfehler und hat voraussichtlich nicht mehr lange zu leben, zumal sie die gefährliche Operation, die ihr noch eine Chance bieten könnte, ablehnt.

Akiko gibt Yuuichi ein Buch von Akutagawa Ryuunosuke, dem Lieblingsautor von Rika und sagt ihm, er solle es als sein Lieblingsbuch ausgeben. Doch Rika merkt nach kurzer Unterhaltung, dass Yuuichi vom Inhalt des Buchs keine Ahnung hat. Zur Strafe schickt sie ihn zur Bücherei, um ihr neue Bücher zu holen. Obwohl Rika Yuuichi ständig schikaniert, verbringen die beiden mehr und mehr Zeit miteinander.

Yuuichi erfährt schließlich, dass Rikas Vater ebenfalls in diesem Krankenhaus gestorben ist und sich kurz vor seinem Tod auf einem Hügel ganz in der Nähe von ihr verabschiedete. Rika sehnt sich danach, noch einmal auf diesen Hügel zurückzukehren, um dadurch die Angst vor ihrem nahenden Tod überwinden zu können …
