Chidori High School is infamous for its rough, delinquent boys, while the neighboring Kikyo Girls' School is an elite academy for wealthy, refined young women. Naturally, the students of Kikyo despise the boys next door. Rintaro Tsumugi is a tall, intimidating Chidori student with bleached hair and a scary face, but beneath his fierce exterior lies a gentle heart and a love for helping out at his family’s cake shop.

His quiet routine shifts when he meets Kaoruko Waguri, a bright and cheerful girl who visits the bakery. Unlike everyone else, she doesn't flinch at his appearance or judge him for the uniform he wears. There is only one problem: Kaoruko attends the rival Kikyo academy. As a sweet, genuine connection blossoms between them, the two teenagers must navigate the heavy prejudices and social barriers dividing their schools. What starts as a quiet friendship over pastries slowly grows into a heartwarming romance that challenges the harsh stereotypes surrounding them.
