Hi I'm searching for the title of this really touching short manga I read a few years ago. It's been eating away at me for days, if anyone here can help me out, really THANK YOU!!! T.T

It's a time travel, unrequited love short story.

The plot goes like this::
[spoilers ahead. Yeah sorry, I only remeber the plot in great detail but not the title >.<]

A rather wealthy high flying young career man's wife passed away. During her funeral he looked at the picture on the coffin of this beautiful woman with curly hair and he realised while the woman was gorgeous and shophisticated, he didn't recognise his wife anymore nor does he hold much feelings for her. He rationalised that it was probably because he has not been home or seen her often in the past few years. They had no child. He didn't feel much pain at her passing because she was practically like a stranger to him. But he has never cheated and he provided her with a comfortable life. As the funeral conculded he thought, while not fantastic, it was an ok marriage, and he was an ok husband.

A while later a short haired school girl with mismatched socks on the train catches his eye when the man was on his way to work. He felt an immense sense of attraction to her. It felt almost magical, like fate, and he could not let her disappear as a stranger. He started actively searching the train for this girl during his morning commutes and sometimes she was there.She always wore mismatched socks. As time passed he observed more and more of her quirky tendencies and felt himself fall more in love with her. Being an adult man he felt it was wrong to feel this way about a girl so he went to the best psych in town to get a confidential evaluation for pedophile tendencies. He was not a pedophile. The psych assured him it was just genuine infactuation and that he was a rational person. Relieved, he continued as usual. One day he followed the girl and he realised that the girl had a boyfriend in school. He was shocked to find out that that boyfriend was him when he was in highschool. It was a good relationship.

The manga then started showing how their teenage relationship progressed from a fun and innocent high school relationship to the support they showed eachother through collage and job hunting. How his wife encouraged him when work got tough and his bosses were unreasonable. She supported him a various ways including encouragement, presents, housework, and even changed her appearence to look more shophisticated so that her husband can leave a better impression with his boss during dinner events. While it was against her nature, she also tried making friends with his bosses and colleagues' wives so that she can help her husband maintain a good relationship and status at work.

As the man remembered, that this quirky short haired girl was the girl he loved and married. He remembered that his wife was there all along supporting him from the shadows at every step of the way. And the only reason he no longer recognised his wife was because she sacrificed so many things about herself like putting off having a child and changing her appearence and demeanor all so in order to help him in his career. Yet he repayed her by forgetting about her. He felt an immense sense of regret that he had not treated her better and gave her more of his time when she was still alive. For the first time since the funeral, he started crying.
