Synopsis
Two emotionally scarred roommates clash at a school for troubled students, forcing them to confront their painful pasts.
"Stop faking your smiles." When Michiru Amagase transfers to Takashino High—a private school known for accepting students carrying heavy emotional burdens—he finds himself immediately at odds with his new partner and roommate, Kou Hoshimiya. Their tense first encounter leaves Michiru rattled, especially when Kou's sharp observation cuts too close to the painful past he's trying to escape. As Michiru attempts to navigate his new school life, he discovers that his relationship with Kou is more complicated than he initially thought. The two boys, each harboring their own closely guarded secrets, must learn to coexist while facing the challenges that come with attending a school where everyone has something to hide. Their volatile dynamic sets the stage for an intense emotional journey as they confront their inner demons and the walls they've built around themselves. (Source: Renta!)
