Nekoyama, is a "浪人"ronin (a student repeating a year) who has failed his entrance exam to art school and spends lonely days by himself. One day, through social media, he meets a fellow ronin named Macaroni, and they gradually grow closer.

They agree to meet in person and spend time drawing together in a park. As they spend more time together, Nekoyama begins to develop feelings for Macaroni. However, the boundary between reality and his idealization of her becomes blurred. The "ideal Macaroni" he has created in his mind slowly diverges from the real Macaroni in front of him.

Overwhelmed by his emotions, Nekoyama impulsively confesses his feelings, only to be rejected bluntly.

This story portrays the phenomenon of inflating one's ideal image of a romantic partner, only to be confronted with the reality that the person in front of you is an individual with their own will—not simply a fulfillment of your desires and hopes. It is a poignant yet realistic narrative.
