    Sweet story
    It’s so refreshing and heartwarming to read this story. I love the art, and all of the characters are so memorable. The FL is especially interesting as a main character, she has so much personality without ever feeling deliberate or annoying. The ML is written well too. It’s nice to see a guy who’s direct for once, instead of relying on misunderstandings and assumptions.

    Such a cute love story!! The plot was very fun to see unfold. The story is balanced very well. I would like to see a spin-off of this one!

    No misunderstandings
    I truly loved how sweet this romance was. The lack of a miscommunication trope was honestly so refreshing

    Very cute
    This story was really lovely. I liked the couple a lot, and the story was good with decent pacing. There wasn't any spice, which was a refreshing change.

    A beautiful short story
    The manga was cute and fun to read. Both of the mains are a little cliché-d but they are still engaging and fun to watch. The story does feel slightly rushed toward the middle-end but not in a way that makes the story feel incomplete. Overall I give this romance a 8.2/10. Im definitely saving this one to have a feel-good story tucked away for a rainy day <3
