But he doesn’t let this get him down, or get in the way of his passion for basketball (which, of course, turns out to be something of a family legacy). At his new high school he finds that the boy’s… Read More First Impressions: Ahiru no Sora

How Did the Bullying Stop for You?

light breaking in depression shut-in
