In a quiet town, two high schools stand side by side—Chidori High, a rough-and-tumble boys’ school known for its troublemakers, and Kikyo Girls’ School, an elite institution with a pristine reputation. Rintaro Tsumugi, a reserved yet strong-willed second-year at Chidori, crosses paths with Kaoruko Wakuri when she visits his family’s pastry shop. Despite their differences, Rintaro finds an unexpected ease in her company. However, Kaoruko attends Kikyo, a school that openly despises Chidori and its students. Their budding connection is overshadowed by the deep-seated rivalry between their schools, leaving them caught between friendship and societal expectations. This tale explores the delicate balance of two hearts drawn together yet kept apart by circumstance.
The contrast between their worlds couldn’t be sharper—Chidori’s rowdy halls versus Kikyo’s refined corridors. Yet, in the quiet moments at the cake shop, none of that seems to matter. Rintaro, usually silent around others, discovers he can speak freely with Kaoruko. She, in turn, appreciates his sincerity, a rare trait in her polished environment. But the weight of tradition and prejudice looms large, making every interaction between them a small rebellion.
As their bond deepens, whispers and judgment follow them, testing their resolve. The story unfolds as they navigate the tension between loyalty to their schools and the growing pull toward each other. It’s a poignant reminder of how closeness can exist even in separation, and how the simplest connections can defy the deepest divides.
