the first story is about the nosebleed guy and the second one is not yet finished and i'm really interested in it. I think that the characters are super cute and i am excited to read more. Edit: The story was updated and finished. I caught up on the second story and it is super cute. I love the second one. The nosebleed one was good too though.

This story was so beautiful and bittersweet. Big scary looking guy works at a convenience store. He doesn't think his life is worth anything and has thought about dying. While working at the convenience store register, two guys who are buying cigarettes get upset when the scary looking guy asks them to confirm their age. They take the fight outside into an alleyway. The scary guy is winning until one of the guys pulls out a knife and stabs him. When the scary looking guy is stabbed, he starts thinking about how he might as well die. He is on the brink of death and sees an angel, a boy with beautiful white wings who sits on the ground. He is then gone. When the scary looking guy is discharged from the hospital, he goes back home to his very small one room apartment and the angel boy is there. The guy lets the angel boy stay at his place until he gets his ability to fly back. The angel boy's wings are affected by people's emotions. When the guy is depressed, the angel boy feels it and feathers fall from his wings. Having the scary looking guy be happy would bring his wings back to health. The scary looking guy tries to find a new job since he was fired from his last one. People won't hire him because of his scary look. While living together they grow closer and learn more about themselves. The angel boy cant remember anything about himself. He doesn't know who he is or if he is really an angel. When the scary looking guy gets the angel boy a smartphone he looks up articles about the stabbing. He discovers that at the same time the scary looking guy was stabbed, his past self had jumped from the building and committed suicide. When the angel goes outside, he realises no one can see him. when the angel was alive, a popular guy in his class bullied him. Everyone noticed, but no one did anything about it. One day, at a party, the popular guy was drunk and tried to kiss the angel boy. He got mad when the angel boy called him a pervert . The popular guy put him into the open window and said jump. When the angel boy looked scared, he seemed like he was about to apologize or be nicer, but the boy sat in the open window and leaned too far back, falling to his death. After the popular boy died, people started blaming the angel boy for killing him, even the popular boy's parents, who came to the angel boy's father to say "why did our son die but yours is alive". This got to the angel boy and he commited suicide due to the way people treated him. There are times when the angel boy tries to fly, but he gets scared. They start to wonder why the angel boy is there on earth and why can only the scary looking guy can see him. One day when the angel boy tries to fly, the scary looking guy asks him to stay with him forever and the angel boy asks him to go out with him. They go out places together and they laugh and smile together. They are both happy. On a snowy day when they are expressing how much they mean to one another, they look happy and the angel boy says he feels like he could fly. When the scary looking guy turns around the angel boy is gone. He becomes sad again, really sad, and he wonders if this is his punishment for things he did in the past. He starts to wonder if he just imagined the angel boy, untill his sister comes over to his place and says "what a beautiful feather". The scary looking guy keeps the feather in a bottle that he wears around his neck. He goes to work at his sister's bar and his younger brother who he lost connection with sends him some rice and congratulates him on his new job. The scary looking guy looks at the angel's feather and thinks that life isn't so bad. In the extra, we see the angel boy call a wide and taller man by the name of the scary looking guy. They both have wings and they walk off together into the distance. The scary looking guy has lived for a long time and has passed away and is now reunited with the angel in heaven. I loved this story and it made me tear up. My favorite work by Harada for sure. Not as fucked up as the other ones, not very fucked up at all, just emotional.

The age gap is, ya know, suspicious, but the characters are cute together and the story is sweet. It has yet to be continued. It left off with the older guys ex-girlfriend coming over when the middle schooler was arriving. Also, the age-gap must be pretty large. The combini worker seems to be out of school and the kid was said to be a middle schooler. The guy is a convenience store cashier and the kid buys bentos a lot. The cashier finds the kid outside on his way home sitting on a swing at night. The guy offered for him to come to hios place since it was dangerous and cold outside at night. The kid explains that his dad is always at work and that his mom is a the hospital since she's a bit weak; so nobody is at home and its lonely. The two spend time together, the older guy saying that he can come over whenever he feels lonely and he gives him a spare key to come over whenever he wants. A bit creep but also cute, if this gets sexual its a no no. We're gonna have a problem sir
