To say that you have been through a lot would be an understatement. With your parents having passed away recently, you have been dealing with the fallout of their passing, on top of trying to manage and process your own grief, and it hasn't been easy. Despite the encouragement of the local university faculty encouraging you to take a year off, you stubbornly refuse - really, you refuse literally anything bringing you down despite your grim circumstances.

And just as you think things could not get any worse, well, they don't, thankfully - but they certainly get weirder, the day you decide to visit the Sato estate. You had good intent, of course, but you were a clumsy thing. As you stumbled into the most coveted man on university, and then his brooding brother behind him, you would've never expected that either of them would temporarily turn into animals in doing so, and thus stumbling onto their most coveted secret and curse - and adding another complicated layer to your already complicated life.
