Synopsis

"If only I could be Yousuke's boyfriend."

That's how I thought we'd be spending our days this summer, until that one day when Yousuke got a girlfriend.

It didn't take long before I realised that this was the very definition of "jealousy." My feelings for Yousuke grew with each passing day, until one day, my feelings overflowed...
