Su Yao is 175cm tall and painfully aware of it. Liu Xi is 160cm, close enough that Su Yao never knows where to place her hands, her gaze, or her heart. It begins with an excuse to meet so small no one questions it. "Can I borrow your textbook?" One excuse turns into another. A shared desk. A sleeve tugged. A warm smile. Su Yao insists she's only being thoughtful, only being kind, but every time Liu Xi tilts her head and looks up, something inside Su Yao falters. Between after-school corridors and stolen glances, the distance between them tightens until breathing feels dangerous and standing still feels worse. What if she reaches out? What if she doesn't?
A high-school yuri romance about first love, unspoken longing, and the aching sweetness of wanting someone who is already within arm's reach, and wishing to be closer still.
