A Sixteen year old boy, Leung has a chance to win a wish; it’s a wish he has to fight for. It is said that if one succeeds in catching a falling leaf in mid flight, then a wish will be granted. Two best friends, Leung and Will, both 16 years old, go to the woods to catch themselves a wish. Through this we see Leung’s affection for his friend. We see his anxiety, confusion and excitement hanging out with his friend and wanting to kiss him, but not knowing how to approach it. It’s a kiss he has to fight for.
