Guaranteed to give you heartburn! An adorable boy-meets-girl love comedy with mutually unrequited love!
“Koharu is a prestigious beauty with a perpetually salty demeanor towards everyone. But only I know that she’s surprisingly gullible. She’s terrible at taking pictures yet often wears a smug expression. And when she smiles, it’s just so adorable.”
“Sota is kind to everyone. But nobody but me knows that he can be a bit mean at times. He’s adept at using social media and works as a waiter at a stylish café. When he flashes his mischievous smile, I get butterflies in my stomach.”
“This is a secret, but I really like him.”
“It’s a secret, but I really like her”
