The Hidden Spot Behind the School Building — It Used to Be My Peaceful Sanctuary… Until Yesterday.

I’m Haruma Ayase, just your average first-year high school student. That place behind the school had always been my quiet little refuge.

Until yesterday.

That’s when I accidentally saw something I shouldn’t have.

Chiharu Shirakawa—my cheerful, energetic upperclassman who’s adored by everyone—was confessing her feelings to her longtime crush.

And getting completely, utterly rejected.

“Ahaha! Oh well! Guess that’s a no, huh? Haha…”

She laughed it off with a brave face, but the moment he walked away—

“Waaaah! I can’t take it! That was way too embarrassing!”

She burst into tears.

I knew I shouldn’t be watching, so I tried to sneak away quietly.

But… I made a sound. She noticed.

“…You saw, didn’t you? Then comfort meee…”

And that was how my strange relationship with her began.

From that day on—and the day after that, and the one after that—Senpai kept showing up at my secret hiding spot.

This is the story of a bittersweet, slightly awkward, and way-too-cute love comedy that began in a place no one else knew about…

with the losing heroine Senpai who just wouldn’t leave me alone.
