Shadow Star Narutaru

The Invisible Ground Level

Akira finally goes back to school after countless days of skipping or interruptions. She is by no means welcomed, and when she collapses in the middle of gym class and is escorted to the nurses' office by a boy with a huge crush on her, she just might be willing to throw away her dignity and sanity for a chance to feel loved. Over at the neighboring middle school, Shiina's close friend Hiroko Kaizuka is being tormented by bullies due to her perfect test grades. But why is Hiroko staying silent about it? And will Shiina find out before it's too late?
