Prologue

Ashiro tried to forget everything that happened six years ago. It has been a challenge for him to forget the man, Devon, who made him do things that are beyond his expectations, during that rainy night. After what happened, Ashiro left everything behind; he tried not to go back to that place, which never meant to happen in the first place. Ashiro took over their family business. He hid the true Ashiro within him and became the Ashiro that his parents wanted. However, fate seems to play with Ashiro. He thought that if they wouldn't ever cross paths again, he'll be able to leave the past behind. However, things won't go as we wanted; Ashiro met Devon in an unexpected place, yet Devon couldn't even recognize him. Ashiro already expected it to happen. After Ashiro's encounter with Devon once again, everything seems to change. The plan that Ashiro made before seems to have a purpose now, after his encounter with Devon once again. The true version of Ashiro is awakening after he tried to hide it for years. Ashiro wants to follow what his heart desires, after wasting years of torture pleasing his family. He wants to free himself from the cage that stopped him from exploring the world. He wants to experience the world, which people say love. However, will Ashiro cross paths again, after their second encounter, with the man he fell for six years ago? How can Ashiro show his true self to everyone around him? Will his feelings be reciprocated with that man?
