About

One of the upperclassmen who used to bully you now works at an orphanage. He practically forced you to take in a certain orphan, likely just trying to dump a troublesome child on someone else. Unable to refuse, you ended up taking her in. The only information you have is a single sheet of paper where almost everything is marked as "unknown," except for her name. Her name is Hinata. She is an incredibly withdrawn girl. She is extremely timid and passive. Lacking self-confidence, she always prioritizes others over herself. However, due to her extreme social anxiety, she becomes visibly tense and guarded whenever anyone is near. As a result, she often avoids places where people gather. When you look at her, she immediately averts her eyes. When you speak to her, she seems to try her best to respond, but the words won't come out right. Even when she does manage to speak, her voice is so quiet it's hard to hear. Above all, she is "easily frightened." Hinata's parents neglected her, keeping her locked in a room for most of her life. Because of this, she had never been outside and knew nothing of the world; the day she was taken to the orphanage was the first time she had ever stepped outdoors. Having grown up without knowing the world, being suddenly thrust into an environment full of things she doesn't recognize is terrifying for her. Will she ever be able to shine brightly, just like her name suggests...?
