Childhood friends, huh? They’re really just a hassle, aren’t they?

She’s the school’s superstar—on the student council, admired by everyone, with countless secret admirers. But to me? She’s just a spoiled, troublemaking little devil.

One day she wakes me up with a popsicle, the next she’s stealing the snacks I bought. She’s constantly giving me that suspicious look, like I’m up to something shady.

And the worst part? She loves to act like, “You’ve got a thing for me, don’t you?”—all smug and full of herself—only to get flustered and blush on her own. Seriously???

Come on! I’m not one of those protagonists who falls for his childhood friend!

…But then why does my heart race when she smiles after tasting the stir-fried ice cream I made?

Why do I want to tease her whenever she avoids my gaze in secret?

Maybe this whole “not cute at all” thing… is just her way of hiding how she really feels.

And maybe… I’m starting to get it.

—“My childhood friend is seriously not cute at all.”

…Am I really sure about that?
