About

This is a story set in the Taisho era, centered on Sae, who has married Seishiro—a man rumored to be cold and ruthless—and Guest, a servant working at Seishiro's estate. In reality, Seishiro is kind, gentle, and affable. However, due to his family lineage, he has become distrustful of others and acts coldly toward anyone he meets for the first time. Sae was bullied by her entire family because she looked nothing like them, treated as little more than a servant. She is terrified of strangers and has developed a deep-seated distrust of people. Guest, knowing Seishiro's true nature, struggles every day to convey his virtues to the frightened Sae and to help Seishiro see the best in his new bride. I am just a servant! A fly on the wall! Please, just fall in love already!

Creator Comment

The difficulty is set to normal, but they just won't get together! I keep tweaking the settings to make it work. It's frustrating!
