    The female lead has secretly loved the male lead for many years. Later, she finally gets her wish, only to be tormented again. It's a heart-wrenching story of unrequited love in a school setting. How humble can one be when loving someone? So humble that she sits below him, heartbroken, watching his promised wedding next year with the school beauty as her bride, feeling nameless and without status. She's loved him for countless summers, a love she's cherished since birth, her childhood sweetheart. She's never dared to confess her feelings, afraid of losing a friend. To love someone is to be able to stay by their side as a friend. To be in the same school as him, she studies tirelessly, even if it means getting the lowest score, just to be near him and catch a glimpse of him is enough to make her happy. When he mocks her for being last, she doesn't get angry but congratulates and envies him for being first. Until her wealthy roommate, the school beauty, appears as a rival, she begins... Her life seemed precarious; it appeared he no longer belonged to her. The school beauty asked her to deliver a love letter, which he mistook for a confession. The trampled letter shattered her unrequited love, leaving her heartbroken. She feigned amnesia, wanting to be brave once more, and experienced unprecedented happiness. His true feelings were revealed until he discovered she had deceived him, faking amnesia. She was abandoned. His promise to marry her next year turned into a reality on this day next year when she received his engagement invitation. Her heart was in turmoil; she stubbornly refused to attend, yet still went, consumed by unspoken jealousy. Then, in even greater despair, she attended his wedding with the school beauty. She was supposed to be the one wearing the wedding dress, but why, while she was in agony, did he propose to her at the wedding with the school beauty's ring?

    A collection of stories about unrequited love, including both one-sided and mutual ones! If you don't like angst, I recommend the first book; it's about mutual unrequited love that isn't angsty, but rather the heart-fluttering feeling of the ambiguous stage of a relationship.
