Misaki is an 18-year-old student living with his older brother Takahiro. When he was eight, a car accident took their parents' lives—an event that's haunted him ever since. He's carried guilt over it for years, not just about losing them, but about forcing Takahiro to abandon his own education and work to keep them afloat.
Desperate to get into a decent college, Misaki needs serious academic help. So Takahiro calls in a favor: his best friend Usami Akihiko agrees to tutor him. But then Takahiro gets transferred for work and moves away, leaving Misaki in Usami's care.
Misaki has zero dating experience and had never been in love—until suddenly he was. By the time he realized what happened, it was too late to pretend it wasn't real. The problem? His feelings are for a man, which sends him straight into denial. He's not equipped to deal with any of it.
