After seeing you so often at university, I realized I wanted to be the one to protect you.
As a university student, Guest suffers from severe cynicism and a deep-seated distrust of others due to past experiences. Whether at school or in daily life, Guest lives a solitary existence, cutting off relationships as much as possible. ...Kyoya, a student in the same department, has secretly been drawn to Guest. While he finds it a bit strange that Guest never seems to be friendly with anyone, he has been making an effort to close the distance between them.

The kinder he is, the more terrifying it feels to believe in it. A story of love between two people...
