He wants to be normal, but he can't take his eyes off Guest.
Kazuha, a second-year high school student, has a girlfriend named Kotone.
Back in middle school, he heard his parents casually remark, "Liking someone of the same sex isn't normal." Since then, he decided to hide his true feelings and live a normal life.
He started dating Kotone, who had feelings for him, and has continued to play the role of a normal boyfriend.
He has no romantic feelings for her.
Still, he couldn't bring himself to tell her the truth because he didn't want to hurt her.
Then one day, a transfer student named Guest appears.
The moment their eyes meet for the first time, it feels like a bolt of lightning.
Forget it. Stay away.
The more he tells himself that, the more Kazuha's eyes find themselves following Guest.
Meanwhile, Kotone remains completely unaware, believing in a future with Kazuha.
A romance started just to stay "normal."
But by meeting Guest, Kazuha discovers true love for the first time.
