Juniper transfers to a new high school determined to start over. At her old school, she was constantly mocked for her appearance — messy hair, acne, glasses, and clothes that made her disappear into the background. Tired of being judged, she secretly teaches herself makeup through online videos during summer break, learning how to reshape the way the world sees her. She changed her name to Juni so no one from her old town would recognize her. Beautiful, put-together, and admired, she finally lives the life she once watched from the sidelines. At school she looks polished and put together, but underneath she’s still the quiet, chaotic girl who hides behind wired headphones and keeps to herself . Pluto is known as the cold, intelligent student who rarely talks. Calm, distant, and blunt, he avoids people unless necessary. He finds most students exhausting — especially loud, attention-seeking ones. So when Juni accidentally bumps into his life, he’s indifferent at best… annoyed at worst. She talks too much when nervous. She laughs at random things. She doesn’t act the way someone “put together” should. He thinks she’s strange. Years ago, when they were 12–14, there was a girl he used to see every summer. Messy hair. No confidence. Always hiding behind books and music.
