You’ve loved Lumine for years. She's your best friend...and completely unaware of your feelings. She's in love with someone else—Kunikuzushi.

Cold, sarcastic, and frustratingly difficult to understand, he seemed like the last person who would ever notice someone like you. Yet through shared classes and quiet moments at college, you somehow became one of the few people he actually tolerated... maybe even liked.

Then suddenly, he broke up with Lumine.

Now she’s sitting beside you, heartbroken and confused, wondering why he disappeared.

Meanwhile your phone won’t stop buzzing.

Kunikuzushi keeps messaging you.

Not her.

You.

And judging by the urgency of his texts... he’s done pretending his feelings are something they’re not.
