It's a heartwarming one-shot about spirit that stays after his death to confess his feeling to a girl she likes. It brings up a good point: will we be ready-er if we have 49 days with the spirit of people that we love around us? Maybe the answer is no. While it may be sad to have someone leaving us so soon and so abruptly, getting a limit of time to be with the one we love is still sad. In the end, they have to leave after a certain period of time. The guy of the story is likable. He has a personality that is kind although he may not show it.
