   Summary

   Only Yoshiki knows that the creature wearing his best friend's face is not human, and that, for some reason, it chose to stay by his side. While trying to teach it how to live like an ordinary person, Yoshiki discovers that explaining the world to something unable to understand concepts like personal space, shame, or boundaries is much harder than he imagined.

   After all, how do you teach a monster to love... when you don't even know how to define what is between you?
