What Is A Star Brighter Than the Sun About?

Viz Media describes the series:

Since her childhood, Sae has stood out for being taller and stronger than most girls. On the other hand, Koki was smaller and less robust compared to the average boy. However, with high school under his belt, Koki has grown tall and gained immense popularity. Could their old friendship re-emerge, possibly blossoming into something deeper?

However, things take an unexpected turn when she unintentionally sends a text to Koki confessing her crush on someone else. This surprising disclosure sets the stage for a thrilling journey of romance that unfolds.
