Fading Hearts
“I am Ryou, a daydreamer and a student at Cyrstal Waters High. I have two very close female friends, Claire and Rina. I have a crush on my childhood friend Claire but she is already in a relationship. Rina seems to be attracted to me but… I can’t date Rina when I like Claire. Read more →Collapse ↑
“I am Ryou, a daydreamer and a student at Cyrstal Waters High. I have two very close female friends, Claire and Rina. I have a crush on my childhood friend Claire but she is already in a relationship. Rina seems to be attracted to me but… I can’t date Rina when I like Claire. I am a very idealistic but romantic kind of guy. It’s a complicated problem.
When I realized that Claire was suffering from an abusive relationship, everything changed. There was nothing Rina or I did that could get her out of it. There was one last resort. Breaking my romantic ideals to save Claire, I had to learn the art of seduction.
The only thing was… I started to learn that there was something going on in this town. Rumors of creatures running around at night, a close call, and a textbook history that doesn’t add up. Even Claire and Rina are connected somehow. Between finding out what is really going on and saving Claire, I don't know if I could manage both.
If only I could stop daydreaming so much then I might have some time. Why are my daydreams so strong now when I need to focus?”
