The night when Ling almost get killed leaves her with the supernatural power – the power to witness the counting down of every single life around her, from years, days, minutes to the last second. Betrayed by friends, emotionally abandoned by blood-tied mother, she at the same time realises that there is only two days left for her. Ling decides to wait for her last moment alone on the rooftop where she encounters a man who attempts to kill himself. A series of happenings teaches Ling on life, friendship and death, a lesson which may be a little bit too late to learn.

This is a city where personality traits, psychology and interest are quantified in order to assign a ‘perfect match’ for qualified members of the society. Boundaries are drawn by a state of 'perfection' maintained by the pairing system, while those wishing to find their partners at their own will are to be expelled. Growing up in the outer circle, Shun has always been longing for finding 'the one' through the pairing system. Emma, on the other hand, keeps a secret from her loving partner assigned by the system. When their paths cross, they are walking without a direction.
