Plot Summary: Sota Oshio is a high schooler who works part-time at his family's café. One day, he sees his classmate Koharu Sato being persistently bothered by several boys at the café and steps in to help her. Koharu is usually known for her "salty" attitude and acts cold toward others, but that's just her way of protecting herself—she shows a softer side only to Oshio. While Oshio runs the café’s Minsta account and is known for his excellent photography, Koharu is terrible at taking photos. Because of this, the two start spending more time together under the pretense of practicing photography. In reality, they've both had feelings for each other since their first meeting in school, but neither can easily express their true emotions. Their awkward, mutual crush slowly develops in this slow-burn youth love story.
