Synopsis

Beautiful and aloof, he reigns over the class. Kiyoi has the innate qualities of a king. At the start of a new term, in the middle of the stifling classroom, Hira, who is silent, friendless, and at the bottom of the class's social ladder, has his heart captured in a single glance by classmate Kiyoi. Though in this world there should be no chance of them ever interacting with each other, Hira, who is treated as a gofer, suddenly finds himself with Kiyoi's phone number entered into his phone! A single world from Kiyoi, even the spare change he receives, is precious. These lonely, suffocating feelings, could they be love? A love story interweaving two opposites begins!

Being spoiler free here to my best efforts, but as a gentle warning, a lot of readers might find this story; or rather the character(s) somewhat problematic. Both the leads have complex personalities but as the story progresses, it's unravelled what drives their weird behaviours.

The story also sheds light on societal outlook towards people with speech disorders (in this case, a stutter) and how it sometimes adversely affects their social relationships, in our main lead's case, leads to Bullying. Till now I have no complaints over how this sensitive topic was handled by the author. In fact personally speaking, it's been quite educational. Thus the ...
