Title: The Burdens We Hide
Summary: ChĆ«shi Oshibaâs life may seem easy on the outside, but in reality his fatherâs word is absolute law. Which is how he finds himself moving across the globe in the middle of second year of university. His initial dread morphs into quiet optimism when he catches sight of the infamous Aoto.
Aoto Hoshinoâs learned to take a lot of things in his life. From his parents, his classmates, pushy men. Nothing can phase him at this point. That is, until he finally catches his morning âstalkerâ in the act. The foreigner turns out to be the one thing that can help Aoto pass his classes to reach his dream and get out of town, much to his annoyance.
It seems these two young men have no chance of getting along despite the attraction they both feel. That is until Aoto catches Chƫshi, his new tutor, in a⊠compromising position. Will these two realize they have more in common? Or will their secrets and the things they hide from each other drive them apart?
