A boy who loves to draw and a girl who never lets go of her binoculars accidentally bump into each other at the airport before their vacation. Their families end up staying at the same hotel, and while both kids secretly want to become friends, their shyness holds them back. The boy dives into his drawings, while the girl, hiding her nervousness, teases him but keeps watching him from afar.
One day, something changes everything: the boy’s drawing accidentally lands in the girl’s hands, and she discovers… he drew her! That moment becomes the start of a wonderful friendship.
As the vacation comes to an end, the kids return home, sad to part ways. But an unexpected meeting at a nearby café reveals an incredible surprise—they live right next door to each other!
