But when he asks her out in the middle of her classroom the next day, she can't help but feel that her life is about to change in a big way! That she doesn't need to change who she is to be more "girlfriendy" and that he doesn't expect her to change herself for him. This is her first "romance" so she asks what girlfriends and boyfriends are actually supposed to do together.

Hananoi's actions might seem like red flags at first, but the more you read the story, the more you start to realise why he acts the way he does.What really works with this story is the realism; the characters, emotions, and situations (for the most part) are true to life. El personaje de Hotaru es una auténtica preciosidad: me encanta su forma de ser, y cómo se esfuerza por hacer feliz a todo el mundo, aunque me da pena que también se olvide de sí misma, espero que veamos en su evolución cómo va aprendiendo a ponerse en primer lugar.
