I'm a broke, down-on-my-luck TL comics artist, waiting for the late-night discount at the rice ball shop, when the black-haired owner suddenly moves up the discount time.
"Regulars get special treatment," he says.
Great, from today on, I'm a regular at Rice Ball Palace! The kind who spends 50 yen a day!
The rice balls are delicious, and the owner's even more tempting. His hands look like they were made for drawing adult comics. Thanks to him, inspiration is pouring out of me.
Then one day, my ex-boyfriend's blond younger brother suddenly shows up. "Cat-senpai, are you back together with Oji?"
I look around in confusion. "First of all, we're not back together. Second, we haven't even seen each other..."
And, well, I'm face-blind. In high school, I recognized my boyfriend by his silver-gray hair. Surely I don't need to say more.
Anyway, we'll never meet again.
Miya Osamu (smiling): So you can't recognize me once I stop dyeing my hair?
Why does this handsome black-haired stranger always add extra toppings to my rice balls?
When will his face-blind, heartless ex-girlfriend finally recognize him?
When we grow up, ordinary, insignificant people like us still shine brightly in each other's eyes.
#A sweet story about two people's first love, split about evenly between high school and adulthood?
#The heroine is face-blind and can't recognize the hero, but her body is honest
#The hero uses his body (crossed out) discounted rice balls every day to keep her coming back
