No matter how hard Miyase Runa studied, the results were always the same. Wrong answers. Failing scores. The quiet shame she laughed off so her friends wouldn't worry. When nothing else works, Hina points to the one person nobody points to. Kuroiwa Rei. The loner at the back of the classroom. The reputation. The empty seats around him. He looks at her test papers and says one word. Terrible. Then two more. Not impossible. She doesn't trust him. But he's the only hope she has left. And he has a condition. A slow-burn school life story about friendship, trust, and two people who start at opposite ends of the same classroom.
