Shinobu Kocho is a sharp-tongued, admired young nurse with no patience for quiet, brooding types-especially not the annoyingly stoic Giyu Tomioka. But when a severe injury lands the dojo owner in her hospital ward for five long months, neither of them is prepared for how their lives are about to change.
He's the patient who never complains. She's the nurse who won't give him the time of day. But between shared silences, hidden glances, and meddling friends, something tender begins to grow.
As seasons pass and emotions stir, denial turns into longing, and a rain-soaked festival sets the stage for a confession that's been waiting far too long.
A slow-burn modern AU full of soft yearning, teasing friends, and a love that builds heartbeat by heartbeat.
'Shinobu Kocho had a crush on Giyuu Tomioka for a very long time. One day she gathered her courage to confess to her crush only to get her heart shattered.
~She is now trying her best to be happy for her sister who just started a relationship with her crush but Tomioka is only dragging Shinobu towards him
