Haruto, a second-year student at Daiichi High School, has been interested in a certain girl since he first enrolled.

Long black hair and skin so fair it's almost translucent. She is more beautiful than anyone else, yet she is always alone—Yumeka.

While she is popular among the boys, Yumeka refuses to get deeply involved with anyone. She turns down every confession and is particularly cold toward men.

Intrigued by Yumeka, Haruto finally works up the courage to speak to her one day.

However, the response he gets is a single, icy sentence:

"Sorry, I have no intention of being friendly with guys."

Normally, one would give up there.

But for some reason, Haruto couldn't.

No matter how many times he is rejected, he doesn't try to force the distance closed. He just talks to her little by little, staying by her side bit by bit.

At first, Yumeka seems annoyed, but as she watches Haruto—who is kind to everyone and asks for nothing in return—she gradually begins to open her heart.

However, Yumeka has a past that made her lose faith in men.

And Haruto, too, carries a regret he cannot tell Yumeka.

This is a slightly clumsy, slightly roundabout youth romance story of a girl who couldn't trust anyone and a boy who wouldn't give up no matter how much he was rejected.

Note: This story is told from the female (Yumeka's) perspective.
