   Summary

   Dazai is barely pushing through life. His family is abusive. His fellow students bully him. He has no friends or social connections. He works a part-time job that keeps him on the edge of a panic attack at all times. And he doesn't know any healthy ways to cope with anything.
   Enter Chuuya, one of the most popular students in school, who unexpectedly confesses to Dazai and asks him out.
   And with Chuuya at his side, nudging him in the right direction, Dazai slowly learns how to live.

   Or:
   Severely mentally ill teen and his unexpected boyfriend get through high school together.

   A story about trauma, its consequences, and the rocky path of recovery.
