High School in the Big Apple! (Prototype)

Higasaki Haruto is a normal Japanese high school student, which makes him pretty abnormal at his new school in New York City, where his family just moved for work reasons. And his first day of school is not going well. Not only did he show up an hour early on accident, he also ran into a gorgeous girl who seems to hate his guts for some reason? Not a great start to the school year.

On top of that, the girl in question invited him to talk privately after school. What's that about? She seems to be keeping some sort of secret. And Haruto is too curious to not try to figure out what it is.

This isn't going to be good for his anxiety.

HSBA is a series that I care a lot about, but I don't have the time or financial incentive to work on it actively right now. In final versions of the story later on down the line things may be different from the preview chapters I have posted on this website, so I have decided to refer to this early version as the prototype. Think of it as software version 0.5, if you like. I am still proud of what I've done with it though, so feel free to read and enjoy!
