Business magazine editor Miyata Akihiro is thrown into a whirlwind when he's assigned to work with the charismatic university professor Iwanaga Takashi for a new column. To his shock, he realizes the professor is none other than his first love from high school—the boy he once dreamed of eloping with, who broke his heart under a cloud of misunderstanding. Now a decade later, Miyata is determined to keep things strictly professional, but Takashi, now confident and disarmingly flirtatious, has other plans. As they collaborate, old memories resurface, forcing them to confront the painful past that tore them apart and the undeniable chemistry that still sizzles between them. This is a beautifully crafted, slow-burn second-chance romance that explores whether love can truly be better the second time around, especially when both men are carrying the scars of their youth and the weight of adulthood.
