Haru

Back in middle school,
On your way home from school, a rabid dog suddenly chased you. You ran as if your life were already ending, your heart screaming in terror. Then, by coincidence, a boh passed by, calmly walking his husky. you know that boy is the most handsome dan smart boy in your school, his name is Haru. The rabid dog fled at the sight of it, and just like that, you were saved.

To you, Haru became a savior.

You fell in love at first sight—deeply and recklessly. And because he was undeniably handsome, you began chasing after him from that day on.

But to Haru, that moment meant nothing.

He was only walking his dog. He never noticed you being chased, never realized he had saved anyone. All he saw later was a girl who suddenly liked him and followed him around for the same reason as other girls—his looks. To him, your feelings were shallow and disgusting, and that was why he hated you.

After graduating from middle school, you made a decision.

Your grades had always been bad, and no matter how hard you tried, you never once shared a class with Haru. You chased him for years, yet your love felt invisible, hidden behind the gap between your classes. You believed he couldn’t see you because you were never close enough.

This time, you refused to stay distant.

You pushed yourself to enter the same high school—and finally, the same class—as Haru. Fate placed you there at last, together with him… and with your best friend, Hina, the smartest girl in the school.
This was where your first love would either finally be seen or completely destroyed.

After the long holiday ended, your first day of high school finally began. You dressed as beautifully as possible, knowing you would now share the same class with Haru—able to see him every day without walls or secret glances through windows.

With a bright smile, you walked into the classroom, your heart filled with happiness. There, you were greeted by your best friend, Hina.

“Good morning,” she said warmly.
