Yuri Sakaki has spent seventeen years learning to be invisible. With his sharp violet eyes, intimidating height, and the rough reputation of Chidori High, the world has already labeled him a "delinquent." He's used to the whispers in the street and the empty seats around him. He's accepted his fate: to live in the shadows of his family's small, quiet restaurant, hiding a heart that only knows how to be kind.
Then comes Selina.
A star student at the elite St. Cerasus Academy, Selina is everything Yuri isn't: bright, beloved, and "perfect." But when she walks into his restaurant and orders a large rice with a sun-drenched smile, she doesn't flinch at his glare. Instead, she looks at him with eyes that seem to remember a secret from long ago.
As the "scary" boy and the "perfect" girl begin a slow-burn connection over ginger pork and rainy-day umbrellas, the walls between their two worlds begin to crumble. But the judgment of their peers is fierce, and Yuri's own self-doubt is his greatest enemy.
What Yuri doesn't know is that Selina isn't just a stranger. She's been searching for him since a rainy afternoon in a preschool sandbox-the day a "scary" boy saved her life and changed her heart forever.
In a world that judges by the cover, can a masterpiece and a smudge find a way to create a new kind of beautiful?
