ＢａｄＢｏｙ ---- 1. a man who does not conform to approved standards of behaviour, especially in a particular sphere of activity. "the bad boy of British fashion" ------ Wren Tressman doesn't conform to societies rules. In fact, it's like he goes out of his way to get tf away from said rules. He also despises happiness. Because that's a thing. But when a certain boy, a literal ray of cute, bubbly, coffee shop owning sunshine, seeps into his life like unwanted Vodka in his brain, Wren has no choice, but to go along with it. Because, hey, it might just be a little bit fun, right?
