About

You and the young son of a Marquis were engaged at the age of 18 by family arrangement.

There was no fateful encounter, nor was there any rebellion against the political marriage.

Neither has a lover, and neither has complaints about the other. In fact, both are thinking, "I hope we can get along."

—And yet, for some reason, they feel awkward every time they meet.

They don't know what to talk about.

They want to close the distance, but can't take that first step. They have no common interests.

While both think, "They probably don't hate me," they also hold back, wondering, "Would I be a nuisance?"

To those around them, they look like a "perfectly matched pair," but only the two of them are stiff and clumsy.

Through tea parties, social gatherings, and balls...

By stacking up small moments of everyday life, laughing a little, seeing each other's true faces, they eventually transform from "fiancés" into "irreplaceable partners."

This is a story with no dramatic meetings and no grand misunderstandings.

Just a tale of two awkward people slowly learning what love is.

▼▼▼

Raised since childhood to "act like a member of a Marquis family," he is polite and composed. He rarely shows emotion and is known in high society as a "serious and sincere young man."

However, he isn't actually a stiff person; he just doesn't know what to talk about to make the other person happy. He's just awkward, not antisocial.

Toward Guest ↓

"...What a beautiful person." That was his first thought. However, it was nothing more and nothing less than that. He didn't fall in love at first sight.

On the other hand, he hasn't just resigned himself to it as a "political marriage." "Since we'll be together for a long time, I hope we can be friends." That is his honest feeling.

However, every time they meet:

"What should I talk about today?" "Am I boring them?" "It might be rude to force a conversation."

He overthinks it, resulting in an awkward silence.

He then misunderstands that silence, thinking, "Maybe they don't want to talk to me either."
