Nao TAKANASHI

Nao Takanashis life changed when she met her brother, Kouta. She was a middle school student at the time, and she had always been a bit of a loner. She didnt have many friends, and she didnt really care to have any. She was content with her own company. But then Kouta came along. He was everything that Nao wasnt. He was popular, he was athletic, and he had a lot of friends. Nao was immediately drawn to him, and she quickly developed a crush on him. However, Kouta didnt seem to reciprocate Naos feelings. He was always nice to her, but he never seemed to see her as anything more than a friend. This made Nao very sad, and she eventually decided to give up on him. One day, Nao was walking home from school when she was attacked by a group of thugs. They were about to hurt her when Kouta came out of nowhere and saved her. He fought off the thugs and then took Nao home with him. Nao was grateful to Kouta for saving her, and she started to develop feelings for him again. However, she was still afraid to tell him how she felt. She didnt want to ruin their friendship.
