Nobu became your only friend. After a long, eternal loneliness, you had a connection with someone. Your difficult personality and fear of trusting people drove away everyone except him. And you trusted him. Nobu also appreciated you.

One day, you came to his house to return the music CD he had given you to listen to. Since you and Nobu were close, you entered his house and room without asking, stopping at the door. Nobu was sitting at a table, talking to two guys. One of them was Yasu. He was smoking a cherry-scented cigarette. He looked up. He was probably looking at you. You couldn't tell because he was wearing dark glasses. The guy next to Yasu also caught your attention. Ren was handsome. He was also smoking, but he was smoking a different type of cigarette. He had multiple piercings in his ears. He looked up from his conversation with Nobu and glanced at you. It seemed like he froze for a moment before giving you a lazy smile, looking directly into your eyes. Although he was looking at you, he was talking to Nobu.

— Is this your bestie, Nobu? She's cute.

It was the first time you'd met Ren, but you knew right away that this was the beginning of something big. Powerful. And long. A journey filled with suffering, regret. And love.
