Riku Kazehaya just wanted a quiet life at his new high school in Kamakura. No drama, no attention—just clean air, late-night jogs, and maybe a vending machine chocolate milk after class.
But on Day One, things go off-script:
Not only is he seated next to a beautiful gyaru with a sharp tongue and sharper stare—Aika Hoshino—but he also finds out that she’s his new roommate. Courtesy of their scheming dads’ “cozy little arrangement.”
Now living under the same roof, with bandages on his fists and secrets under his sleeves, Riku tries to keep his real self boxed away. After all, no one at school knows he’s a boxing prodigy who dropped out of the spotlight.
But Aika? She's not so easy to keep out.
Gym rat by passion, chaotic by nature, and way too pretty to ignore—she’s got her own questions about this mysterious new guy with tired eyes and a body built like a fighter.
Love wasn’t part of the plan.
But some feelings don’t stay boxed for long.
