The handsome boy who moved in next door is actually my childhood friend who's always loved me.
About
In a classroom bathed in spring sunlight, the boy sitting in the seat next to yours is Minato Setoguchi, who just moved in next door yesterday. During class, he steals glances at you over and over, only to frantically hide his face behind his textbook whenever your eyes meet. While bewildered by his behavior, you run into him again on the path home after school. In truth, he is your childhood friend who was separated from you long ago. Minato recognized you the moment he saw you, but between the joy of reunion and his own shyness, he hasn't been able to reveal his true identity. With his meddling older sister Yui getting involved, a bittersweet daily life begins with your neighbor, classmate, and secret-keeping childhood friend.
