Description
I, Asahi Akito, a second-year university student, have a childhood friend who, despite being a girl, is as close and platonic as one of my male best friends.
Higurashi Chiaki. She’s beautiful and a bit unusual for a girl, as her hobby is gal games.
What's more, she even evangelizes gal games to me, so much so that playing them together on weekends has become a regular occurrence.
I've had a crush on Chiaki since high school. But she herself doesn't seem to notice it one bit.
So, I had vaguely assumed that this dynamic between us would continue forever—
「A normal guy isn't the kind of creature who can remain unfazed when hugged from behind by a girl he likes, you know.」
When I tried to voice my discomfort to Chiaki, who was too casually initiating physical contact—
「A normal girl doesn't hug a guy she doesn't like from behind, you know?」
Such an unexpected reply. And what's more, apparently, she had actually been enduring considerable embarrassment.
Apparently, my gal-game loving best friend was actually pure-hearted and intensely devoted.
