The Night We Got Just a Little Closer

"Sukoshi Dake Chikazuita Yoru (The Night We Got Just a Little Closer)" is the sixteenth song in the "Advent Story" series, told from the girl's point of view.
It follows the moment she realizes that the casual "bye" she said at the ticket gate sounded a little softer than usual, and that something inside her has quietly begun to change.
She types and erases a simple "good night," searching for the warmth of his voice through a row of tiny stamps, and starts wanting to respond to the kindness of his words, "You don't have to rush." This gentle winter love ballad captures the small but certain step she takes forward, feeling that tonight, they've come just a little closer than yesterday.
