Chapter 01
The Story Begins with Risa
I like handsome guys with perfectly good looks, the kind that everyone envies.
I can only love handsome men.
And not just handsome—but flawless.
If they’re not perfect, even when it comes to their past, I completely lose interest.
If I see them trip clumsily, or if their face gets all scrunched up from sneezing—just the tiniest embarrassing moment—and that’s it.
My feelings of attraction vanish instantly, and there’s no way I’d ever want to date them.
That’s why, until recently, Ryūga—the guy who used to be in the idol group i3 (Ice-Three) and now works as a solo “sexy-type” idol while also attending my high school—was the worst of the worst.
In the entertainment world and at school, he’s seen as this intelligent, reliable, and irresistibly charming older-brother type. So when I got to know him through my childhood friend and bestie, Aoi Mogami, I honestly thought, Wow, I’m lucky.
But then something happened.
I ended up seeing a pathetic side of Ryūga.
Maybe because of that, or maybe because it triggered something, he started confessing his sloppy private habits to me. Then, to top it off, he suddenly went, “You’re the only one I can show my true self to. Be my personal friend who I can bare everything to!”
And ever since then, he’s been clinging to me in the most unbelievable ways.
So honestly…
“Risa-chaaaan… I’m sooo tired… Pamper meee…”
When Ryūga behaves like this—pathetically spoiled and needy—he’s nothing but a complete obstacle standing in the way of my dream of finding the perfect handsome boyfriend.
