Ryo is a high school student with one main goal in life: to earn a full scholarship to the best university and pursue his dream career in technology or science. Every day, he dedicates himself to his studies, working hard to prepare for the highly competitive entrance exams. His life is stable and well-planned, free from any major distractions—until three girls appear, each in their own unique way.
Mika, a cheerful and popular girl, starts showing interest in him after Ryo helps her with a group project. Ayumi, an energetic and outgoing classmate, invites Ryo to join various social activities, disrupting his carefully maintained routine. Meanwhile, Haruka, a mysterious and reserved girl, offers him deep and thoughtful insights about life and his aspirations.
These three girls, each with vastly different personalities, begin to draw Ryo into an emotional dilemma. On one hand, his ultimate goal of getting into university and achieving his dreams remains his top priority. However, the growing attention and emotions from the three girls start shaking the stability of his once-structured life.
Ryo must choose between staying focused on the future he has meticulously planned or following an unexpected path filled with complicated relationships. Through this journey, he learns that chasing dreams isn’t always as simple as it seems, and the decisions he makes will shape the course of his life.

My Dream Delayed by Three Hearts

Ryo's success in securing a scholarship and being accepted into his dream university was a major turning point in his life. However, despite his happiness, a mix of emotions surfaced. With this new step he was taking, he knew that this was not the end of his journey, but rather the beginning of a more challenging chapter. His dream had come true, but Ryo was aware that there were many things he still had to learn and face in the vast world ahead.

That morning, after a small celebration with Mika, Ayumi, and Haruka, Ryo decided to spend some time at his usual place of reflection—the city park. He wanted to think, plan his next steps, and prepare for the future. University awaited, but there were still many things he needed to get ready for, and he knew the road ahead would not always be smooth.

As he sat on a park bench, Mika suddenly approached him. "Ryo, I know you're thinking a lot about the future, aren't you?" she said gently. "But I want you to know that no matter what happens, I'll always support you."

Ryo smiled at her words. "Thank you, Mika. I know that without your support—and the support of our friends—I might not have made it this far."

Mika sat beside him, and for a moment, they both fell into a comfortable silence. Ryo felt a sense of peace that only came from moments like this. "I know our path won't always be easy, Mika. There will be many challenges ahead, but I believe I can face them as long as I have you and our friends by my side."

Mika looked at him with warm, reassuring eyes. "You definitely can, Ryo. We'll always be here for you. No matter what you face, we'll face it together."

At that moment, Ryo felt a deep sense of tranquility. He knew that the road ahead would be filled with challenges, but he also knew that with the support of his friends and his own determination, he was ready to take on whatever came his way.

After a while, they walked together toward their usual café. Ayumi and Haruka were already there, looking excited. Ayumi grinned widely and said, "Ryo, Mika! You're late! I've prepared a surprise for you!"

"A surprise?" Ryo asked, intrigued.

Ayumi held up a brochure for an upcoming university event. "I heard your university is hosting an orientation event for new students! We have to go together! This is our first step toward our journey in university!"

Haruka nodded with a wise smile. "I agree. This is the beginning of many new experiences we'll encounter. Everyone starts with small steps, but what matters most is that we take those steps together."

Ryo felt a wave of gratitude and excitement fill his heart. It wasn't just about achieving his academic goal—it was also about the support and friendships he had built along the way. Life at university would surely bring many new things, but he no longer felt alone. With his friends by his side, he was ready to face whatever came next.

That day, they excitedly planned their trip to the campus, filled with anticipation and hope. Ryo realized that although the future was uncertain, he already had a strong foundation—not just from achieving his dreams, but from the relationships he had nurtured with his friends. Now, the real journey was just beginning, and Ryo was ready to step forward, embracing both the challenges and opportunities that awaited him.
