Kamone Academy had just opened it's doors to students. One by one, the classrooms were filled. Akane Aoi had been waiting by the entrance for her best friend, Yashiro Nene.

Yashiro Nene was the girl everyone liked, whether it be romantic or platonic. She had everyone's dream life.

She lived on the richest part of town, Jibaku Heights. It was by far considered the best part of town. It had what everyone dreamed of.

She dated the most looked out for boy, Minamoto Teru. He was part of the student council and the captain of the basketball team.

She was pretty, smart and nice too. When you thought of someone who's pretty, popular, and smart, you would expect them to be anything but nice. But she was just that, nice to everyone.

The bell rang and there was no sign of Yashiro, but the answer to that question would come as soon as the teacher arrived.

"Hello class, today we have the unfortunate news that your classmate, Yashiro Nene, has attempted to k*ll herself. She is currently at the hospital and recovering."

Everyone's expression had changed in an instant. From confusion to sadness. Aoi had started breaking down, with Akane helping her.

"Due to the reaction shown by your classmates, we shall let you go out early. You can go."

Some people left as early as they could. Some took some time to get out. And some stayed. A boy with choppy hair and bandaids around his arm being one of them.

His name was Yugi Amane. He was a part of the Astronomy Club. He had a bad home life. He lived with his brother, but had to work to keep them afloat.

He left the classroom and went to the rooftop. He sat in a bench and started crying. As his tears touched the floor, he remembered her.

Her blonde hair with teal tips, her smile, her rose colored eyes. Her.

They looked nothing alike and shared nothing alike. They were classmates to everyone else. Except themselves.

. . . . .

Amane had always used the rooftop to cry whenever things got tough at home,and it looked like he wasn't the only one.

One day, he was entering the rooftop, when he saw a similar siluette.

"Ya- Yashiro-san??" He whispered, before she turned around and saw him. She had her hair all over the place, her eyes were puffy, and she looked red, probably from all the crying.

"Ah- Hello Amane-Kun! What can i do for you?" She said, as she sniffed her nose.

"Were you- were you crying?" He said as he looked at her. They had known each other for years, but he had never seen her cry.

"What!? N-No..." She said, as her face faded, into what looked like the truth. An ugly one, for sure, but still, the truth.

"Are you okay?" He asked softly, looking into her eyes, trying to help her.

"No..." She whispered, before her face lightened up, but it looked fake. But then again, wasn't that her face all the time?
