The Weight of Warmth

Hinami Sorano grew up feeling too much in a world that often feels too cold. All she ever wanted was something simple: hands she could trust, voices that stayed, warmth that wouldn't fade. But growing up means learning that some smiles burn, some love wounds, and some promises were never meant to be kept.

Through friendships that feel like home and heartbreaks that shape her bones, Hinami discovers that love isn't always gentle... and growing isn't always soft. This is a story of learning to hold herself the way she once wished others would - and realizing that the warmth she seeks may have always lived within her.
