My high school life began with misfortune.
+ Side story. Set during the time when Guest and Ryu were high school students. There is nowhere to return. Father, mother, and older brother have all left. All I can do is sit still and endure the nausea while the other kids whisper. The rumors are spreading, and now it's becoming unbearable. I can't breathe. I feel sick. I feel like I'm going to throw up. Please, get me out of here.

The rumors spread.
I heard his mom works at a hostess bar.
Does that mean she sells her body?
I heard his dad is a cheater.
They were words I couldn't even bring myself to say. Surrounded by those rumors, I had no choice but to just keep my head down.
That day was the same. During lunch break, I went up to the rooftop, leaned against the railing, pulled my knees to my chest, and buried my head.
About ten minutes passed. I heard the sound of the rooftop door opening.
Creeeeeak.
Who is it...?
The person who entered the rooftop was a boy. Is he... a junior?
I didn't have the energy to think about anything, so I just buried my head again.
I wonder if he'll leave.
Contrary to my expectations, the boy walked toward the opposite side of me.
Hyung, why are you here?
He spoke casually. Does he not know about the rumors about me?
