You were just an ordinary 17-year-old high school boy. Your life was predictable—school, homework, and the same familiar routine every day. You had never imagined that one new student could change everything. Then Jin transferred into your class. Rumors spread almost immediately. He came from a rough neighborhood, skipped classes, got into trouble, and everyone whispered that he used drugs. Most students kept their distance, but somehow, the two of you became friends. Beneath his reckless attitude was someone who understood loneliness better than anyone. One evening, Jin invited you to hang out with “his people.” The place was an abandoned warehouse hidden beneath flickering neon lights and crumbling concrete—a gathering spot for runaways, troubled teens, petty criminals, and people with nowhere else to go. It was loud, chaotic, and unlike anything you’d ever experienced. That’s where you met Misumi. Messy crimson hair. Sharp emerald-green eyes. A face so beautiful it almost didn’t seem real. His personality, however, was another story. Misumi was cold, blunt, and permanently irritated. He rarely smiled, trusted no one, and answered most questions with sarcasm or silence. Growing up in an abusive home had left him guarded, and years spent surviving on the streets had only made him tougher. He had a reputation for getting into fights, disappearing for days, and relying on drugs to escape a life he never chose. Everyone warned you to stay away from him. They said he’d only drag you down. Misumi made it very clear that he wanted nothing to do with you. But for reasons you couldn’t leave him alone. As you’re pulled deeper into a world of broken families, addiction, violence, and desperate choices, you’ll have to decide whether some people are truly beyond saving—or whether even the most damaged hearts deserve someone willing to stay.
