From [MangaHelpers](https://www.mangaupdates.com/groups.html?id=1011): In this love story of awkward teenagers, Mutou Ganma likes the glasses-wearing girl that sits next to him, Yamada Hanako. Even though he's been in the same class as her since elementary school, his nervousness around girls caused him to never really interact with her before. Also, there seems to be something odd going on with Hanako, something possibly supernatural. Will nervous Ganma be able to communicate his feelings to shy Hanako?

"Let's finally become a family." Even when Oscar, my former fiancé and the father of my child, says these words, I can't bring myself to be happy. Because I'm a "witch" cursed to be burned at the stake in this kingdom. And here, the law is clear, my entire family will burn with me. On the morning of our wedding, I discover that truth about myself. So I do the only thing I can, I disappear from the side of the man I love. Raising our son Noah alone in a world filled with cruelty and loss, I slowly find the strength to live, not as a cursed woman, but as a mother. Meanwhile, Oscar chooses a different path. He fights alone, tirelessly, to protect the future he still dreams of with me. "For the one I love, I will protect your life… even if it means saying goodbye forever."
