The possibility that something as beautiful as love might not be returned had always been the least of her concern. It wasn't until that one night when she saw the hidden side of him: his vulnerability, his freckles under the makeup, and most importantly him.
The real him.
However, when she finally saw him differently, much to her dismay, he wasn't looking at her. He was already head over heels for a girl named Heather. Beautiful, Popular, innocent, and everything else she's not. As if blindfolded, he failed to see the cruel things she has done to his best friend, May.
After all the pain and suffering, she recognized her worth by moving on, unbeknownst to her that Oikawa began to finally look her way. Oikawa never meant to hurt her, but now he has to deal with the consequences after realising his feelings for her.

He could not understand how she could see through his façade he put his efforts into constructing over the years. She, who kept mostly to herself, had eyes as sharp as a hawk to see through the cracks of his porcelain skin.
"Please don't say you love me," Oikawa would say, but the aching in his heart would yell the opposite. "You know I'm rotten inside."
"All the more reason to adore the bits and pieces of you."
A story of one most-desired volleyball captain and his late spring- a first love he hoped to be not so painful.
