Synopsis

Risa Saionji is an untouchable "Ice Queen"-perfect, beautiful, and completely out of reach.
​To Akira Fujiwara, she's just a "hassle."
​Akira lives his life by one rule: avoid unnecessary hassle. He doesn't want any friends, he doesn't want fame, and he certainly doesn't want to get involved with the school's most popular girl. He prefers the comfort of his quiet apartment and his own company.
​But his quiet life is shattered when he discovers a secret: The Ice Queen lives in the apartment right next door.
​Behind her wall of glass and perfect grades, Risa is struggling to survive on her own.
​She needs a helping hand; he just wants his peace. It's a neighborly arrangement that was never supposed to happen, and it's definitely bad for Akira's heart.
A Slice-of-life romance story about two lonely people who experience comfort from the people they least expected in an unexpected way.
