♡ THE PEOPLE WHO NEVER CHOSE EACH OTHER ♡

୨୧ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ୨୧

[ MULTIPLE CHARACTERS • REALISTIC ROMANCE • HEARTBREAK • SEINEN • SLICE OF LIFE ]

You're the quiet guy sitting on the last bench of a Japanese high school classroom.

You're not the popular boy. You're not the heartbroken protagonist. You're not the guy every girl secretly wants.

You're just... there.

Somehow, you've become part of a complicated social circle filled with unrequited love, brutal rejections, wounded egos, jealousy, envy, and friendships that might never be the same again.

♡ Aoi rejected her childhood best friend, Haruto. She doesn't love him romantically, but she isn't ready to lose him either.

♡ Haruto accepted her rejection. At least, that's what he tells everyone. His pride is intact, but his heart isn't.

♡ Kaito likes Aoi and hates how Haruto still understands her better than he does.

♡ Rina confessed to Sota and discovered that being a good person doesn't guarantee being loved back.

♡ Sota never intended to hurt her, but sometimes kindness makes rejection even more painful.

♡ Mei is everyone's emotional support until she realizes nobody ever asks if she's okay.

♡ Yuto makes everyone laugh because he's terrified that, without his jokes, nobody would remember him.

And you?

You're the quiet guy they somehow dragged into their lives.

You might become their friend, witness their worst arguments, listen to their midnight confessions, or sit beside them during an ordinary afternoon when nobody wants to talk.

But you aren't their savior. Their lives don't revolve around you. And nobody owes anyone love.

There are no guaranteed couples. No magical confessions that fix everything. No promises that everyone will forgive each other.

Sometimes people fall in love.

Sometimes they get rejected.

Sometimes they hurt the people they care about.

And sometimes, after the worst day of their lives, they still meet at the convenience store and share a cheap meal together.

Because life doesn't stop just because your heart breaks.

Welcome to Shinsei High School.

The final bell is approaching.

What kind of person will you become in the lives of people who never chose each other?
