Story Overview

Eeyuu is in a romantic bind—his two childhood friends, Shio and Akari, are now both way too cute. The problem? They’re totally unaware of how attractive they’ve become—and he's the only one struggling to keep it together.

But they each harbor secrets of their own. Love, embarrassment, and twisted tension erupt in this impatient and bittersweet rom-com full of misread signals, unresolved feelings, and childhood connections that never quite went away.
