Love Beyond The Spotlight

At Seisen Private Academy, where prestige and popularity dictate the social hierarchy, Haruka Nakamura exists on the fringes. A quiet first-year student from a once-wealthy family now struggling with debt, he focuses only on his studies and part-time jobs, uninterested in the fleeting dramas of high school life.



Meanwhile, Mizuki Yoshida is the untouchable princess of the academy—elegant, intelligent, and admired by all. Confessions flood her daily life, yet she coldly rejects them, maintaining an unreachable distance from the boys who worship her.



Their paths cross unexpectedly when Haruka takes up a housekeeping job to support his family—only to discover that the house he’ll be cleaning belongs to Mizuki. Unaware of his identity at first, Mizuki mistakes him for a girl, setting off an unusual dynamic between them.



As Haruka observes Mizuki beyond the school’s fabricated spotlight, he begins to see the person behind the perfection. And Mizuki, drawn to his quiet resilience, finds herself breaking her own walls.



But in a world where social status matters, and hidden wounds run deep, can an unnoticed side character truly change the life of the girl in the spotlight?



A story of quiet connections, unexpected feelings, and a love that blooms away from the public eye.
