Description
Yuki is a typical college student in all ways but one: She's hard of hearing. A
chance encounter on a train leads to a serious crush...but will he give her a
chance? A sweet and relatable manga romance from the creator of Shortcake
Cake!
Even with a hearing aid, the voices of others are an indistinct blur for Yuki. But she's
never let that get in the way of a life arranged around her friends, social media, and
cute fashion. She's browsing her phone on train when a tourist asks her for
directions, and she's ready to panic...but the handsome Itsuomi steps in to help. It
turns out her new crush is a friend of a friend, and Yuki's world starts to widen. But
even though Itsuomi-kun can speak three languages, sign language isn't one of them.
Can Yuki communicate her budding feelings?
From the acclaimed author of Shortcake Cake, the hit shojo series with more than a
million copies in print, this new work is sure to please fans of romantic stories like A
Silent Voice, Kimi ni Todoke, and Love in Foc...
