Premise
Second-year high school student Eiji Aono and his childhood friend Miyuki Amada were dating for half a year. One day, when Miyuki cancels a planned date with Eiji on his birthday, he decides to stroll through the city. Lost in thoughts, he arrives at the love hotel district and imagines what could have been if the date had been happening. Eiji decides to call it a day and is about to leave for home when he suddenly encounters Miyuki hand-in-hand with an upperclassman from their school, Seiji Kondō, the ace of the school's soccer club and a politician's son.
Before Eiji is able to realize what is happening, he is hit by Kondō. Kondō confronts Miyuki either to end their affair or to break up with her boyfriend. When Miyuki decides to break up with Eiji, he is shocked. Arriving at home, Eiji locks himself up in his room. When summer holidays were over, Eiji tried to confront Miyuki but is blocked by one of her friends. At school, Eiji became a victim of bullying and was ostracized by his classmates. Eiji decided to endure his situation but when the bullying was about to take over his family, he decides to talk to the teachers but stopped when he witnessed Miyuki talking to them. Eiji runs into Kondō who declares that he is the culprit for Eiji's suffering, having spread false rumors of Eiji using domestic violence against his former girlfriend. When Eiji asked Kondō why he did something like this, Kondō replied that he likes to see other people suffer.
Shocked by Kondō's true colors, Eiji decides to end it all and committing suicide by jumping from the school's rooftop. When he arrives at the rooftop, he encounters an unhappy underclassman, Ai Ichijou, the school's idol, who was about to kill herself as well. Eiji ironically stops Ai from killing herself and instead they both start talking to each other. Eiji decides to skip school with Ai and leave for his mother's family restaurant. Miyuki, who still secretly cares for Eiji witnesses him leaving the school with Ai and is shocked. In reality, Kondō hurt her to make Eiji a scapegoat. A friend introduced Kondō to Miyuki when she stated to her, the relationship between her and Eiji is stagnating. At first, Kondō seemed like a friendly and helpful person. When they came closer to each other, Miyuki became emotionally dependent on Kondō.
What no one would realize is that this incident would spark a controversy even reaching the highest-level politics.
