Plot

[edit]

The story primarily revolves around two high school students: Kyouko Hori, a bright and popular student and Izumi Miyamura, a gloomy and seemingly nerdy otaku. In contrast to her image at school, Hori is a homebody who dresses down and looks after her younger brother, Souta. She takes every attempt to hide this from her classmates, as to not disrupt her social status that others have perceived of her and cause others to worry. One day, Souta comes home with a nosebleed. He had been accompanied by a boy with numerous piercings and tattoos, who introduces himself as Miyamura. After recognizing Hori, even when she is dressed down, they agree to keep their true identities concealed from their peers. However, over time, when the two begin to learn more about each other, they learn they have more in common than they originally thought. Together, they agree to assist one another in keeping their after school identities a secret. As time goes on, the two find themselves closer than ever.

Initially, she only saw Miyamura as a close friend, but later on she begins to have romantic feelings towards him. She heard his confession to her when she seemed to be asleep. They became a couple after she admits Izumi is her boyfriend when her father asked her when Izumi was present.Ch.23 Because of her need to be self-sufficient, Hori has severe separation anxiety, and over time becomes more reliant on Miyamura's presence.
