Sa mundo kung saan ang pangalan ay mas mahalaga kaysa pagkatao, natutunan kong magsuot ng maskara. Isang gabing nagkunwari akong kabilang sa mga mayayaman—hindi para manglamang, kundi para maranasan kahit saglit ang buhay na hindi kailanman naging akin. Ngunit sa gabing iyon, nakilala ko siya—si Jayden Ryan Fendi. Akala ko sandali lang ang lahat. Isang pagkakamali. Isang lihim. Isang hiya na lilipas din. Pero ang mga ulap ay hindi lang basta naglalaho. May mga bagyong kasunod. Nang mabunyag ang katotohanan, hindi lang reputasyon ko ang nawala—kundi ang tahanang tinawag kong pamilya, at ang pusong hindi ko sinasadyang ibigay. At habang unti-unti akong nawawala sa mundo niya, may mga lihim din pala siyang itinatago. Hindi pala ako ang unang nagsinungaling.

Kakeru is a 23-year-old who has been living with his older brother's family for a few years now. His daily life oscillates between work and a very warm home where he is so well-taken care of that he has been spoilt. Moreover, his three-year-old niece is rambunctious and expressive enough that he is kept forever entertained and feels needed. The household is always lively and welcoming, which Kakeru attributes to being the reason for his prolonged stay and for his older brother's best friend Hiromitsu's regular visits. "We were two stray souls who had been taken in by this loving young family." However, he feels that it is time to move into a place of his own because he is now an "adult". Nevertheless, life is as perfect as he would have wanted it to be- all up till certain incidents leave him questioning the very ideal home and relationships he had let himself believe in.

On the first day of every month, my mom will give me my allowance based on the number of times I had checked in with her last month. "You'll receive 20 dollars for greeting your parents once in the morning and once in the evening. But last month, you only hit ten days' worth of quota, so you can only receive 200 dollars. This also means your 300-dollar punctuality fee will be deducted as well. "After adding on 150 dollars for your basic necessities, you shall receive only 350 dollars for this month's allowance. Remember to write a reflection report on your lack of punctuality later. I'll only transfer you the money if your report is acceptable." I become so overwhelmed by anxiety that my voice starts trembling. "I was busy with my finals last month, Mom! I had to line up outside the library at 5:00 am every day just so I could secure myself a seat! That's why I couldn't call you in time!" In a choked-up tone, I plead to my mom, "I need 600 dollars for the train ticket all the way home during the holidays! 350 dollars really isn't enough for me! Mom, can you please—" But my mom cuts me off firmly, "The allowance system is something that I've specifically designed for you so that I can help you get rid of the bad habit of wanting to receive everything without putting in hard work! Why can't you just understand that I'm doing this for your own good?" After that, she ends the call mercilessly. Just as I'm filled with despair and helplessness, a blond appears before my eyes. He's willing to buy my train ticket for me, but in return, I need to leave with him.
