Each of them holds a desire in their heart that only this special place can fulfill. They must follow the cafe's strict rules, however, and come back to the present before their coffee goes cold.
The cafe will welcome a father who could not allow his daughter to get married, a woman who couldn't give Valentine's Day chocolates to her loved one, a boy who wants to show his smile to his divorced parents and a widow holding a child with no name...
Another moving and heart warming tale from Toshikazu Kawaguchi, in Before we forget kindness our new visitors wish to go back into their past to find closure and comfort so they can embark on a beautiful future." -- Cover.
