What Good Is Youth Without a Little Mischief?

[Blurb]

I still remember when we first met, young and innocent.

Now, by the ink-stained shore, we have gone our separate ways.

After the glory, after the fall, after prison,

who was it that held her hand tight?

When all the splendor has faded,

only he has a smile that is true.

[Notice] This story is planned for three volumes, with 20 chapters each. It has a happy ending, so please read with confidence.

This is a slow-burn story.

(This is my first time writing. Looking back, it's a little rough around the edges, haha.)

A secretly passionate personality is often hidden, so it takes a particular person or some turning point to bring it out.

[Signs of a Secretly Passionate Person]

1. Turning and walking away means they have something to say but can't get the words out.

2. Their seemingly casual gaze gives just the right amount away while keeping the rest hidden.

3. They seem incredibly reserved on the surface, but burn with passion inside.

4. They often say the opposite of what they mean.

5. They like putting other people down.

6. They may be quiet, but when they let loose, they make a stunning impression.

7. They secretly love looking good.

8. They tell expert-level lame jokes without even realizing it.

9. In some ways, they are easily embarrassed.

…Still compiling the list… Stay tuned…
