It was said that being in love is much like riding a roller coaster. This holds true for most except for junior high student, Haruka who finds that her love isn't at all like this and on the contrary compares it to a merry go round. When Haruka discovers that her favorite sempai in her camera club is going to move in just a month, she impulsively confesses her genuine feelings. Even so, her sempai does not take her seriously and brushes it aside lightly with jokes. But, though Haruka was nervous and embarrassed, she was not discouraged and thus her merry go round of love begins. (summary by kiumi from The Evil Empire)

Could that dream be a foreboding one?

With every intention of keeping her head held high, Ninako prepares to face the mental pain of this one-sided love that she had allowed to take root, facing a series of trials that would either contribute to her growth as a headstrong woman, or break her as it did with other girls. However, is this really a one-sided love? Or had something been silently sown in the most hidden area of Ren's heart?
