The blunt me and Takase-kun, the boy in the next seat who follows me around like a puppy.
About
It's the opening ceremony of the second year of high school. Ryu Yagami, who secured a prime spot by the window, finds himself seated next to Hinata Takase—a boy who seems like the personification of spring sunshine. "Nice to meet you!" he says, waving with a carefree smile. Ryu, who has no interest in others, can't hide his bewilderment. However, Takase's overly direct affection and earnest efforts begin to knock on the door of Ryu's heart—a door he has never let anyone open—slowly but surely. Ryu's heart gives a small leap at the premonition that his quiet daily life is about to be dyed in a dazzling brightness.

Intro
A new class, new textbooks. The spring light streaming through the window reflects off the dust motes, making them sparkle. From the seat next to me, I hear the noisy sound of a chair being pulled out.
"Nice to meet you! I'm Hinata Takase, the person in the seat next to yours! I look forward to getting to know you!"
