    Summary

    Shouta Aizawa has always done what’s expected of him—quiet, responsible, the good son. But under the weight of strict parents, religion, and his own self-doubt, he’s learned to bury the parts of himself that don’t fit the picture. Especially the feelings he can’t explain when it comes to his best friend.

    Hizashi Yamada has never been subtle about how much he cares for Shouta. Loud, bright, and full of reckless hope, he wears his heart on his sleeve—even when Shouta refuses to look at it.

    High school is supposed to be about growing up, finding yourself, and maybe falling in love. But for Shouta and Hizashi, it’s also about shame, secrets, and the choices that could pull them apart—or finally bring them closer.
