New couple Nao races to plan perfect 16th birthday for Uehara amid first-love jitters and daily chaos.
Nao and Uehara’s accidental roommate situation has blossomed into something more—now officially a couple, they’re navigating the sweet, awkward territory of first love. As Uehara’s 16th birthday approaches, Nao is determined to find the perfect gift, juggling school, part-time work, and her own fluttering heart.
