Erika Sakura is the most admired girl at her high school, used to being out of everyone's league, until her attention fixes on Kuzumi, a plain, short classmate who cannot read the room. The more she watches him miss every cue around him, the less she can look away, and her own racing thoughts leave her unsure whether he notices her at all. Erika talks herself in circles chapter after chapter while classmates speculate about the two of them.
