Highschool romance! "No matter how much time we spend together, I'll never be special to you" 

Great start to the series. Kakeru character is so cute - reminds me of a cute hyperactive puppy! 

Yamato his childhood friend is crushing on him and doesn't believe his feelings towards Kakeru will ever be returned. 

Yamato's character is good looking but is quiet. People don't always know how to approach him. Even Kakeru friends aren't sure how they are friends as they are polar opposites. 

Beautiful drawings and lots of subtle hints that Kakeru likes Yamato as well but doesn't think it is possible - so has completely disregarded it. 

End of the volume shows the start of Yamato saying he wouldn't like Kakeru to be in a relationship.
