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.

Ugly to You, Mine to Me

Chapter 46: She Told Me to Live, So I Learned How to Die Slowly

Yumi's desk was cleaned.Her messages archived.Her name whispered like a myth behind lockers and memorials.

He went places they'd gone before.Sat in silence.Drew the sky where she once stood.

And every Friday, he opened a new letter.

They started to sound like goodbyes she couldn't say out loud.

"When the pain doesn't fade, give it somewhere to go. A wall, a song, a page. But not another person. Don't pass it forward."

"Remember that your hands aren't made for breaking. You held me like I wasn't fragile. Hold yourself that way too."

He never read them twice.He couldn't.

Ugly to you, Mine to me
