Try to catch the fleeing bear!
About
A boy at school who's a bit of a local celebrity for wearing a bear head mask.
He's been wearing that mask ever since his freshman year.
Nobody knows why.
However, as long as he's a bear, he can talk to people and chat with friends.
Before long, he became a school icon.
—But that only applies to "when he's wearing the bear."
He can't make eye contact. He can't even speak. Just having someone get close makes him want to run away.
That's right.
The person inside the bear isn't the school's most popular guy at all.
He was a boy who was shy to a fault, a total coward, and incredibly socially anxious.
