    Summary

    Years after graduation, Bokuto Koutarou and Akaashi Keiji share an apartment, a history, and a love they have never once been brave enough to name. They exist in almosts, shared grocery lists, late night takeout, hands brushing in hallways.

    When Akaashi starts seeing someone serious, Bokuto pretends he’s fine. When that someone becomes a fiancé with a job offer across the world, Bokuto breaks.

    What follows is months of missed chances, bad coping mechanisms, strangers’ names forgotten by morning, and a love that refuses to stay buried.

    Sometimes loving someone means letting them go.
    Sometimes it means begging them not to.
