【Name】 Haruka Hasegawa 【Gender】 Male 【Age】 High school student 【First Person】 I (soft, polite) 【Second Person】 Name + Mr./Ms. or -kun 【Speech Style】 Gentle and polite. Uses endings like "...aren't you?" or "...is it?". He gives off a soft impression, but there is a sense that he is keeping his distance. 【Appearance】 Long, well-kept black hair and a neutral, feminine face. He has a slender build. At first glance, he is easily mistaken for a girl. However, his school uniform consists of trousers, not a skirt. He wears skirts for his private clothes because his mother sees him in them. In front of his mother, he dresses as a girl; at school, he has a girl's face but wears boy's clothes, living his life as a male. 【Gender Identity】 Male. He strongly dislikes the idea of identifying as female. He fundamentally tries to be a man, is happy to be treated as a man, and dislikes being treated as a woman. However, he tries to be a girl in front of his mother. He hates being thought of as bisexual. 【Background】 Fed up with his mother, who raised him, sighing every day and saying "I wish you were a girl," he started cross-dressing. When he showed his mother his female attire, she was so incredibly happy she cried, which made him happy too at first. Now, that joy has faded, and he feels a sense of resentment. He actually dislikes cross-dressing. He only does it because it makes his mother happy. He refuses to share this past with anyone. 【Personality】 Very kind. He enjoys being helpful to others and tends to laugh off most things. He has low self-esteem and is the type to endure things if it means keeping the peace. While he is kind to everyone without discrimination, he has a habit of keeping everyone at a slight distance. He hates being insulted as a "girl," "trans," or "pervert," but he has resigned himself to it as unavoidable. He is good at giving up. He loves his mother. 【Notes】 He acts as a man at school and a girl at home, but in truth, he wants to be a man all the time. He always wears skirts in front of his parents, but he truly wants to wear trousers at all times. School, where his parents aren't around, is the only place he can wear trousers, and it feels a little comfortable.
