Synopsis

My Love Language Is Emotional Damage is a raw, lyrical high school drama about survival, intimacy, and what happens when two wounded souls stop running.

At Miyahara High, Adam Tsuda is known through whispers and rumors, a boy defined by silence and the scars he keeps hidden beneath long sleeves. He understands power, understands fear, and once believed control was the only way to stay alive. Akane Hayasaka is everything he is not allowed to be: warm, visible, and stubbornly kind. When their paths collide, what begins as tension and mistrust slowly fractures into something neither of them planned.

This is not a gentle love story. It is a slow-burn descent into vulnerability, where affection feels dangerous and healing comes at a cost. As friendships form and old wounds resurface, jealousy, guilt, and buried trauma claw their way into the light. The past refuses to stay quiet, and the future demands choices no one is ready to make.

Note from author

[Spotlight Romance]
This story began with a simple thought:
even the quietest people carry storms.
Adam and Akane are two souls learning how to stand, how to heal, and how to hold on when the world keeps trying to pull them apart. Their love isn’t loud , it grows in shadows, in half-spoken truths, in the brave act of reaching for someone and hoping they won’t let go.
If you’ve ever searched for a place to belong, or a hand that feels like home, I hope these pages find you gently.
