Yuzuko’s a positive, always charming girl with the horrible habit of verbal diarrhea. Just when she’s done it again and insults someone, she’s saved by a drop dead gorgeous maid from a maid cafe. Little does she know (though the readers are more clued in than this poor girl) that the maid is none other than the high school hottie Itsuki - who’s only doing it as the #1 most popular maid at his father’s Maid & Butler cafe.

The second floor of the gym―this was where we always met. It was class time, but of course, there weren't any classes going on in a place like this. This was where Shimamura and I became friends.
