Kaito Azusagawa never expected his transfer to Shuchiin Middle School to mean anything special-until he met Makinohara Shoko. Quiet, gentle, and thoughtful, the black-haired girl carries a kindness that feels familiar, almost like she's someone he was meant to find.
What begins as small, ordinary moments-walking to school together, talking after class, sharing the kind of silence that feels comfortable-slowly becomes the most important part of Kaito's day. Shoko sees him in a way no one else does, and her calm presence pulls him out of the loneliness he tries to hide.
As their connection deepens, Kaito realizes he doesn't just want to be friends.
He wants to be someone she remembers. Someone she chooses.
This is a warm, emotional, slow-burn romance about two middle schoolers growing up, discovering first love, and finding their place in the world by finding each other.
