The story
What it's about
Akihito, a college student with a penchant for pretty faces and a penchant for womanizing, finds Sae's beautiful face and aloof attitude utterly irritating. At a group date, he discovers that the girl he was targeting was only interested in Sae, pushing his frustration to its peak. Just then, Akihito stumbles upon Sae arguing with a man in a hotel district. Seeing Sae so vulnerable, a stark contrast to his usual self, Akihito is provoked and forcefully pushes him down. However, his unexpected reaction causes him to lose control...?!
