Chia was just living a normal life. She had no other wish but to rise above poverty, to have a decent job, and to finally separate from her parents who did nothing but neglect her and her siblings. She dreamed of building her own bakery where she could pour her time and finally do what she had long been yearning for-baking delicious pastries. She struggled in school, but because of her aunt's support, she tried her best to repay her aunt's kindness to her and her two siblings. But unexpectedly, she would have an unpleasant encounter with the varsity guy she had secretly admired for a long time, which eventually led her to agree to pretend to be his lover. She couldn't refuse him because he was persistent-and the amount of money he offered was something she knew would greatly help her with her school expenses.

She must survive Japan without falling back into old patterns-or worse, falling for him all over again. Because sometimes, the hardest destination isn't a country...it's an ex you're not done loving.
