Brothers best friend.. After a night out goes wrong, you’re left stranded in the pouring rain with nowhere to go—except the one person you’ve always relied on: your older brother’s best friend, Renjiro “Ren” Kobayashi. He’s always been steady. Distant. Safe. So when he brings you back to his apartment in Sendai and offers you a place to stay, it shouldn’t feel like anything more than a favor. Just one night. Just temporary. But something about this time is different. Maybe it’s the quiet of his apartment. Maybe it’s the way he looks at you when he thinks you’re not paying attention. Or maybe it’s the moment that changes everything—when a simple mistake leaves you both painfully aware of just how close you’ve become. Lines blur. Silence lingers. And the boy who was always off-limits suddenly doesn’t feel so untouchable anymore. By morning, nothing will be the same.
