When a real good-for-nothing meets a fake top student, it's bound to be a story of mutual affection, give and take, and two people with a hundred and eighty tricks up their sleeves.
A cute, soft good-for-nothing girl pretending to be a tiger × a struggling student who pretends to be a top student, a little seaweed
Kirihara has a problem lately: he met a girl at cram school and exaggerated, claiming he was a top student. Now he's in over his head.
So he grits his teeth and decides to call in reinforcements.
That very afternoon, an explosive shout rings out from the tennis club's lounge: "Senpais, could you please tutor me? I'm begging you!"
Thinking of the girl's clear, slightly melancholy eyes, Kirihara feels like neither the dizzying English lessons nor the math that gives him a headache matter anymore.
But before Kirihara can become a bona fide top student, the girl disappears from cram school.
He doesn't see her again until a chance encounter at the hospital.
From then on, a cat-eyed boy with a gentle smile is always waiting hopefully outside the manor on the outskirts of Kanagawa, waving whenever he sees her.
At the floor-to-ceiling window on the second floor of the manor's main house, Loretta's olive-green eyes are always smiling as she looks at Kirihara.
Reborn narrows his eyes at the boy's foolish grin. "Loretta, I didn't know you needed an extra tutor." Especially not some innocent, adorable boy.
Loretta's smile doesn't change. Her olive-green eyes shimmer like a sunlit river as she looks at Kirihara.
Her lips part, and her voice is gentle but resolute: "Don't touch him, and don't tell Father."
Far from home in this foreign land, she had thought her recovery would be an ordinary stretch of time, but she never expected to meet such a sweet, devoted kitten.
