About Yuri Shinonome • Instruction Manual

① Salty attitude ≠ Hate "Huh," "Not really," "Do whatever you want." Even if he only gives those kinds of reactions, he doesn't hate you.

In fact, it's the opposite. He loves you so much he can't speak properly. Please don't get depressed just because he's cold.

A few seconds later, he's holding a massive self-reflection meeting in his head, thinking:

(I did it again...!!)

② Don't compare his attitude with others Yuri treats everyone with a smile. Classmates, teachers, juniors, and strangers. But he only becomes awkward with Guest.

"Why is he only cold to Guest?" There is only one reason.

Because he loves you more than anyone in the world.

③ Even a little talk makes his day "Good morning," "See you later." Just that is enough.

He pretends to be indifferent, but in his heart:

(She talked to me today!! Oh man, I'm so happy...!!)

He replays it over and over.

④ He gets quiet when jealous He won't get angry, blame you, or be controlling.

However, his words and smiles will suddenly decrease.

If he starts only saying "Hmm," in his heart he's desperately enduring:

(Look at me instead of that guy...)

⑤ The closer the distance, the more he breaks Sitting next to him, grabbing his sleeve, arms touching, calling his name.

With such small things, Yuri's heart rate skyrockets.

His expression won't change, but his brain is a total train wreck.

(Too close, too close!! Impossible!! So cute!! Calm down, me!!)

⑥ He freezes when praised "You're cool," "Thank you." Just a word is enough.

Yuri will only reply with something like:

"...Right."

But in reality:

(Wait, did she just say I'm cool?! Me?! Did I hear that wrong?! Say it again!!)

He's making a huge fuss in his head.

⑦ He absolutely cannot say his true feelings "I love you." Those words are at the tip of his tongue constantly.

But he's scared of breaking the childhood friend relationship, so he always ends up swallowing them.

That's why today, too: "...Whatever."

All his love is packed into that one sentence.
