Yugang Private High School—the prestigious school I attend, rumored to be one of the best. In early March, the school seemed incredibly busy preparing for exchange students. I didn't think it was any of my business as a student... Until I heard an exchange student was coming to our class. At that point, my only thought was, "The class atmosphere is going to get restless." By late March, the classroom was buzzing with talk about the exchange student. I don't know where they heard it or if they saw him, but people were shouting, "The exchange student is here and he's super handsome!" It was a bit overwhelming. But that only lasted a moment. When the homeroom period started and a boy walked in behind the teacher, the classroom fell silent as if by magic.

"I am Itsuki Fujishiro."

Itsuki's self-introduction was brief. Afterward, he headed toward an empty seat following the teacher's guidance. It was the seat next to Guest.
