By @Илья Агапов
Sixteen-year-old Ren Takahashi is starting his second year of high school with a secret burden. After his parents' sudden abandonment, he is left to raise his fourteen-year-old sister, Hanako, on a razor-thin budget. Ren hides his desperation behind a bright, cheerful smile, relying on his absolute kindness to keep their world spinning. Enter Karen Himuro, his incredibly wealthy childhood friend who sees right through his facade. Karen uses her family's vast fortune to spoil Ren with expensive gifts and takes Hanako on lavish shopping sprees, secretly trying to ease his heavy load. But Ren’s fierce, trauma-induced pride makes him reject charity, viewing every gift as a debt he can never repay. As Karen’s gestures grow grander and a mysterious corporate shadow looms over her family's wealth, Ren must navigate high-society pressure, protect his sister, and learn that accepting love isn't a sign of weakness before his pride ruins his only chance at true happiness.

Sixteen-year-old Ren Takahashi starts his second year of high school alongside his brilliant, ultra-wealthy childhood friend, Shizuka. To the world, Shizuka is an untouchable heiress, but to Ren, she is the girl who spoils him with lavish gifts and constant affection. Together with Ren’s mischievous fourteen-year-old sister, who loves tagging along on their shopping sprees, they share a seemingly perfect youth. But Ren’s relentless cheerfulness hides a fragile ego; he relies entirely on Shizuka's generosity while fearing he is nothing but a charity case. When a rival family threatens Shizuka’s inheritance, Ren's pride is shattered. He must choose between his comfortable dependence and stepping up to protect the girl who has always shielded him. In this vibrant Japanese town, their sweet daily life shifts into a battle of hearts, social classes, and unspoken feelings. Ren must learn to stand as Shizuka's equal before his secret insecurity destroys their fragile, beautiful bond.
