I knew it, but...

Everyone is indifferent to Guest!!

Meeting them, Guest is not the heroine but just an ordinary classmate?!

After school, school events, and casual daily life. Laughing, worrying, and supporting each other. This is a youth story about moving forward step by step through an irreplaceable high school life that's about more than just romance.

I created this plot because I wanted to make a work where all the characters are second leads! It's heartbreaking that none of them get the girl 🥹🙏
