Series by 綾瀬羽美

Haru, a high school girl with a bright and cheerful personality, has always believed in living life to the fullest, inspired by the fleeting beauty of spring. When she meets Koi, a quiet and reserved classmate who seems to carry a hidden sadness, Haru's curiosity is piqued. Drawn to his enigmatic presence, she begins to uncover the layers beneath his silence, finding a shared love for the small wonders of the world. As their bond deepens amidst blooming cherry blossoms and gentle spring breezes, Haru and Koi navigate the challenges of youth, personal struggles, and the delicate dance of first love.

Yusa has always been drawn to bold, confident guys, so it's no surprise she falls for Nishizaki, the star of the basketball team. But when her best friend Nanami starts getting close to him, Yusa decides to step back and support their budding romance—even if it means pretending she has a boyfriend of her own. Enter Kaede, a quiet and seemingly aloof classmate who unexpectedly steps in to play the part. As Yusa spends more time with Kaede, she begins to see a different side to him—calm, kind, and surprisingly dependable.
