Valentine's rom-com: popular Hiko receives chocolates from childhood male friend Ken-chan, who wants more than friendship.
On Valentine's day, the top ikemen of the school, Hiko, is the most popular among the girls again this year! At this time, the girls all gather, aiming for Hiko... "Take this! My heart's desire!" Reverberating through the hallways is a passionate confession. And the person who delivered the handmade chocolates was his childhood "boy"-friend!
