This story is about war. One boy, Jojo, live in a village, but he lives alone. This village got involved with war. His family, acquaintance, and the other there were killed. Only Jojo survived from this happening. He lives alone. Wherever in this village he goes, there are dead bodies of persons who he is acquainted with.
There aren't any more days. There's just time. Time when it's dark and time when it's light. Everything is dead, so why not days too?
As you know when you read this explain, this story is hard to read on. However while reading, I was a little comforted by a writer of war. He came there and met the boy. He talks to him kindly and they make good relationship. This is the only scene which I got to like.

The writer is a very kind person. I want to read it.
