He just is. Meanwhile, he learns the sad pasts of his friends, which are rather troublesome, as are their futures. All the while, he tries to unravel the mystery behind this school, and why it was made... But he just... Can't.
Lukas feels like he's missing something. Matthias is always lurking around, trying to sneak in to see Lukas, but gets kicked out by Wang Yao. Lukas wants something, and he wants it so badly...

As their lives collide, Lukas must navigate the treacherous waters of first love, fear, and vulnerability. In a world where control is everything, can Lukas learn to trust someone enough to let go-or will his fears drive them both to the brink?
