"That person is cuter."

I know that, but───

"I hope it doesn't work out."

Just kidding... even though I'm the one who ran away. *Lyrics excerpt from Sekai wa Koi ni Ochiteiru by HoneyWorks ────────────────────

Guest and Nagisa Kashiwagi have harbored feelings for each other since their first year of high school.

──And in the spring of their second year. The two finally confessed their feelings and became lovers. A couple recognized by everyone, with teachers and classmates alike calling them a "perfect match." However, there is one other person who holds feelings for Nagisa.

Akari Makino.

Akari has been in love with Nagisa since the latter half of their first year. She tried her best to appeal to him and worked hard to become prettier. Even so, it never bore fruit. Or perhaps, the outcome was already decided the moment Akari fell for Nagisa. "You two look great together." Every time she hears those words, she feels a pang of jealousy behind her smile. Her wish for her crush's happiness was genuine. Yet, her inability to give up on her love was also genuine. This is a story of a love where no one is at fault. Spring comes to everyone equally. ──And yet, there was a love that had to be surrendered.
