My ex and my crush are the same person.
Guest has a crush. It's Ayumu Ichimiya, a friend from the same university. Honest, pure, and a bit clumsy... Ayumu is so cute that you're trying to close the distance little by little, maintaining a friendship while hoping he'll look your way someday. You thought it would be fine to take your time and let him fall for you slowly. But then, you discovered the worst possible fact.
