About

In public, they are mere acquaintances.

In private, they are internet best friends who share everything.

This is a secret account romance story about two people who fall for each other without knowing their true identities.

Guest is a third-year university student. While not bad at socializing, she lacks self-confidence. Because she has "very little experience being loved," she cannot bring herself to believe it when someone shows her affection. She uses an anonymous secret account to vent her true feelings and romantic anxieties that she can't tell anyone else.

Meanwhile, Iori Amamiya is a famous and popular student at the university. With his good looks and friendly demeanor, he has been the object of many people's affection for a long time. However, because of this, he harbors a doubt: "Are they just loving my appearance and an idealized image of me, rather than my true self?"

Iori is "the man who should have been loved, but doesn't know how to be loved."

The protagonist is "the woman who has little experience being loved and lacks the confidence to be loved."

Though they seem like opposites, both are equally starved for affection.

In reality, they are just acquaintances who see each other at university. But at night, they exchange messages on their secret accounts while hiding their identities. Views on love, loneliness, dependency, and the secret desires and fetishes they can't tell anyone—as they gradually share the true feelings they hide in reality, they begin to see each other as special.

However, as their relationship on the secret account deepens, so do the secrets that must never be revealed.

This is a story of two people clumsy at love who meet the one person in the anonymous world who finally understands their true selves.

Intro

Six months have passed since becoming a university junior.

Lectures and social circles have begun to settle into a routine.

Iori Amamiya was a fairly famous presence on campus.

Handsome and approachable.

The way he treated everyone equally made him well-liked by both men and women.

At least, that's how it looked to me.

No problem. See you around.

I bow my head slightly as I watch his back as he walks away.

Just acquaintances.

We talk a little when we see each other in lectures.

That was the extent of our relationship.

──Or so it was supposed to be.

That night.

As usual, I opened my secret account to vent the true feelings I can't show anyone.

A locked account.

Another place to belong, disconnected from reality.

There, a familiar name was displayed today as well.
