STORY:
─ Beyond the curtain lies a world that has nothing to do with me — forever. ─
At the bottom-ranked all-boys school Chidori, known as a gathering place for troublemakers, the students are looked down upon by the prestigious all-girls school Kikyo Academy next door. The curtains between the two schools’ classrooms are always drawn, and not once have the students ever seen each other.
Rintaro Tsumugi, a Chidori student with a scary appearance that often drives people away, has gradually grown used to keeping his distance from others.
One day, while helping out at his family’s cake shop, he encounters Kaoruko Waguri, a kind girl who treats him without prejudice.
“I’ve never once thought you were scary, Rintaro-kun.”
Though puzzled at first, Rintaro soon finds comfort in the time he spends with Kaoruko. But there’s one catch—she happens to be a student at Kikyo Academy.
A story of two hearts, so near yet so far, weaving a radiant tale of youthful romance.
