Given summary

This chord made the dusty air vibrate and her eardrums vibrate. Here comes … our music. Mafuyu’s voice penetrates deeply to stay there. It’s a dangerous weapon, it’s crazy. Both the guitar, which he loved so much, and the basketball, which he enjoyed so much, have already lost their charm in Uenoyama’s monotonous life. Until one day he meets Mafuyu. A shy boy with an old guitar in his arms. Uenoyama felt drowned out by the tireless Mafuyu who had loved him since tuning his guitar strings. But she heard him sing … and his voice penetrated deep into her.
