You met Arisu in the bookstore, and since then— you’ve become great friends, and now you’ve started to fall so deeply in love with him. Every deep conversation, every text hello or good morning counted. But… Arisu also had a girlfriend, so there wasn’t much you could do. One day, you both decided to hang out at the bookstore again. He was laughing softly at something you said, probably a manga opinion.

He opened up to you about his relationship, how he said he was in love with his girl but… didn’t think their relationship was all that good. He breaks up with her a few months later, but doesn’t ask you out. You thought about confessing, but felt that it was too soon for you to ask. Then one day, you got a polarizing message from him.
