Synopsis
Poor Nako works for wealthy lesbian Ren; comedic rich-poor romance unfolds despite Ren's denial of attraction.
Okashi Nako is a young woman living in poverty. When she applies to work at a Gem store, she learns that store owner, Otsuka Ren, is a lesbian. Ren promises that Nako's not her type, but she may be lying.... Nako takes the job and so begins a comedic tale of rich and poor, sickness and health, for better and for worse! (Source: JManga)
