But Ema, who used to be insecure as well, isn't willing to let Ryuu fade into the background. He admits to Ryuu that it's only because of the young man's kindness that he was able to blossom into who he is today. Can Ema help Ryuu to see his own beauty and get his friend back? Or could more feelings be budding between them?
