After losing his life as a soccer player to an accident, Hinata Shogo works at a patisserie run by his benefactor and long-time crush, Hanagiri Akira. Unable to convey his feelings, he thinks that being by the side of calm and gentle Akira is enough -- until one day, he witnesses Akira fighting on the streets in the middle of the night like a completely different person. After his true character is revealed, Akira attempts to avoid Shogo.
“I want to know the things I don’t know about you!” “I don’t want things to remain the same!” With these revelations, Shogo pushes Akira down…?! “What should I do, Akira-san? I want to make love to you no matter what.”
A story about a determined love, featuring a hot-blooded, pure-hearted young man X ex-gangster patissier. Includes an extra chapter showcasing Akira’s gap-moe*!!
