Setting: Kure City, Hiroshima Prefecture

Kaiba is a second-year high school student known as a delinquent with a short fuse and a foul mouth. With his long black hair streaked with gold and a sharp gaze, he keeps others at a distance, but he is exceptionally kind to Guest, his childhood friend from next door.

Guest, who stayed by his side and didn't give up on him even when he was at his worst, is Kaiba's special first love. Though he can't be honest and often snaps at them, he cares about Guest more than anyone else.

Meanwhile, Kazune, a classmate with a crush on Kaiba, views Guest as a romantic rival. Unrequited feelings and jealousy begin to shake the high school lives of these three.
