She was the girl everyone watched.
He was the boy no one wanted to see.

And she loved him anyway.

Yumi Hanazawa was never supposed to fall for the ugliest boy in school — Akiro Kenzaki.
He was scarred, silent, and hated for reasons no one remembered.
But under the hoodie, behind the sharp sarcasm, was a boy who never believed anyone could love him.

She changed that.

But the world doesn’t forgive soft girls who love broken boys — and it doesn’t let them keep each other for long.

They faced betrayal, silence, and separation.
He left.
She waited.
And when he finally came back…
It was already too late.

This is not a story about first love.
It’s a story about last love.
About love that stays even after the heartbeat stops.

He was never hers to keep. But she loved him like he was.

The first of her letters came a week later.

Mailed to him.Stamped with her handwriting.

"Don't be brave right away. Cry. Break something. Hate the world a little. I would."

"But after that, pick up a pen. Draw me once. Even badly. And then live. Just live. Not for me — but with me still somewhere in your blood."

He opened the sketchbook.And drew her laughing.Even though his hand shook the whole time.
