I think I was more feminine back when I was just dreaming of Tokyo.

I'm so sorry!

How do you get those long lashes? Or that radiant skin!

You wanted to look cute for a guy you liked.

I have no confidence.

I'll cast a spell on you.

An amazing one that gives you so much confidence

you won't care about outside opinions anymore.

I was waiting for you!

How about we go on a date?

Okay!

Could you please teach me your magic?

I don't coddle people who've never made the effort.

You're Hikaru?

Why don't you forget him

and choose me.

What?!

You're a man?

I don't understand.

Hold on.

Here you go.

Cross-dressing?

- Why? - Well…

I like beautiful things, so I just wear what I want.

I see.

What?

Then, we spent the night together,

a man and a woman under the same roof?

What's the big deal?

You were the one being aggressive.

- What did I do? - You wanna know?

It should be obvious.

What?

Love problems?

I wish it were that easy.

What the hell is this?

Ow!

That way!

This is a pigsty.

Got it all out?

I'm done. All done.

Your socks were in the kitchen.

Put your tummy away!

Stop scratching!

I'm borrowing this.

Why is there a bra here?

Laundry.

No way!

Give me a break already.

Wait, she'll puke.

So many spare lint rollers when she never cleans.

That should be enough for now.

Good night.

I've made a disgrace of myself.

You off now? Good work.

Thank you!

No dress today?

That's a shame.

Huh?

I guess you wouldn't dress up for work.

You have so many shifts!

You gonna be okay?

I'm pretty tough!

But thank you.

I'll be careful.

The next day we both have time off

is tomorrow!

Wanna go somewhere?

- What? - Is that too last-minute?

No, that'd be great!

It's decided then.

I'll text you what time later.

Okay!

Thank you!

Good for you.

It's not!

What am I going to do tomorrow?

Meet at the cafe.

Okay.

Mr. Hikaru!

Please teach me the magic you promised!

Today, I'd like you to teach me about date-night outfits!

That's so stupid.

Date-night outfits

are for luring men who think they have a chance.

Who do you want to lure?

Mr. Kurotaki!

So why don't you think about this Kurotaki guy some more.

Right.

Although, I really have to watch my budget.

No dress today?

That's a shame.

Maybe just a dress.

A dress, huh?

A dress is a whole outfit, so that can save you some money.

Maybe this one.

Find something you like?

No…

You can start with shoes, too.

But I can't.

Why not?

I've always been self-conscious about being tall.

I'd be a giant in heels.

Don't slouch! Neck back!

Suck your belly in! Chin down!

Stop hiding yourself and be bold!

What's wrong with being tall?

See?

That's much better.

It's perfect.

Luckily they were on sale.

I went all out for my first date.

- I'll give you another cabbage as thanks. - I don't need them.

Seriously, don't.

Anyway, what's going on in your head?

I mean.

People usually shun cross-dressers, so why?

Why?

Because I wanted to become friends with you.

Cut that out, you're embarrassing me.

Mr. Hikaru. I already know that you're actually a nice person.

I won't get mad from a little teasing.

I didn't mean it like that.

All right.

Fine.

- Huh? - Just call me Hikaru.

We're friends, right?

And the same age.

Wait, we are?

Then I don't need to be formal!

You're so shameless!

Then you can call me Haruka.

Good to meet you, Hikaru.

Yeah.

So, now that we're friends,

do you have a crush on anyone?

What? That already?

Let's talk love life!

Are you seeing anyone now?

You wanna know?

It's a secret.

You idiot.

Hey!

Don't worry.

I don't date girls who leave bras out.

You saw that?

Dang it!

Hello!

Hey, Haruka.

Can you talk?

Yes, of course!

Good.

I was thinking about what to do tomorrow

when a friend invited me to some new product launch party.

You interested?

A party?

You have an impressive friend.

Is it okay that I go, though?

Of course!

It'll be casual, so you don't need to dress up.

I've always wanted to go to a party, so I'm a little nervous,

but I'd like to go!

Okay!

It's decided.

Yes!

I look forward to it!

I can't wait!

Me, too. See you later.

She's so earnest.

You're going on a date like that?

I actually redid it a bunch of times!

Just to end like that?

Go wash it all off, right now!

- Go! - Yes! Got it!

Done.

Wow!

Now I'm worthy of going on a date with Mr. Kurotaki.

"Worthy of a date?"

Why submissive?

Because!

Who do you think picked your outfit and did your makeup?

Are you gonna stand there and tell me you're still not confident?

Not exactly!

Don't go in thinking men and women aren't equals.

He'll walk all over you.

Mr. Kurotaki wouldn't do that.

Then don't cling to him and be normal.

Today, you're the cutest you've ever been.

Mr. Kurotaki!

Wow! So cute!

You look great.

- Ready? - Yes!

Today, you're the cutest you've ever been.

Thank you!

Thank you so much, Hikaru!

I so owe you for this! I'll do anything!

I promise you can count on me!

I love you!

Seriously?

Just girls being friends?

Huh?

Is that the new lipstick from Lunelis?

It's just you, Shu.

How could you tell?

I mean,

I know everything about you.

I thought that color would be perfect on you.

Now.

Let's go.

Don't be so cold, we're going on a date.

I don't want to be late, so we have to hurry.

Turn off the lights for me.

Really?

Here, too.

Oh, this is where it is.

We're here.

Hi, here's my invitation. Thanks.

- This is amazing. - Yes, it is!

Keisuke!

- Long time! - Yeah!

Last I saw you was Tomoki's birthday?

- I think so. - Right?

Long time no see!

Um, I met Nick while I was studying abroad through my roommate.

That guy's so amazing.

So cool.

You seem pretty amazing yourself, from my perspective.

I had no idea what you were saying just now.

He asked me if I came with a friend.

How do you say "work friend" in English?

I don't know.

I told him I came with someone special.

Are you okay?

I'm totally fine.

Is this your first time on a date?

Will he be mortified if it is?

No, it's just been a while.

Did that work?

I see.

Do you like specialty shops?

Yes, of course!

I'm lying! I've never been to one!

That looks so good!

- Which do you want? - Oh, my!

This one, and this one.

That's amazing.

Ow.

Those are nice shoes!

You like this bold design?

- Yes. - That's unexpected.

I'm lying! My feet hurt so bad!

- Kurotaki. - Yes?

One sec.

- It's been a while. - It has.

You're doing Nick's shoot?

- Thank you for inviting me today. - Of course.

It hurts so much I'm hearing Hikaru's voice in my head.

Hikaru!

Why are you here?

I came with my nepo-baby classmate.

His dad is the CEO of Kiriya.

As in the cosmetic brand?

Even I've heard of them.

Thanks.

I'm Shu Kiriya.

Um.

How do you know Hikaru?

I'm Haruka Fukunaga, and he's teaching me how to do makeup.

You came alone?

No, I'm here with a friend.

Then let's both enjoy our dates.

Excuse me?

Okay.

Get off me, Shu.

Go say hello to everyone.

Okay, fine.

Please, excuse me.

Haruka.

Sorry.

You gave me so much advice,

but I'm just no good.

I don't know what happened,

but there's nothing that's no good about you today.

Hikaru.

If there was,

it's that ugly, unconfident face.

That's harsh!

Beautiful people

are people with confidence.

You went through the trouble of casting a spell on me

but I have to change on the inside.

I shouldn't tell lies.

It'll make me hate myself.

What is it?

Thank you, Hikaru.

Sorry, Haruka!

I got caught up.

It's okay!

Um,

Mr. Kurotaki!

I'm sorry.

The truth is,

I was lying to you.

To be honest,

this is the first date I've ever been on in my life.

I was scared by our difference in life experience

and tried to play it off.

I'm sorry for lying!

But, I don't

want to leave yet.

I might be overstepping,

but I want to continue our date.

Thanks, Haruka.

But seriously, I'm nobody that special.

Also, I did get the sense you weren't that used to this.

But you still put in a lot of effort dressing up for today.

Thanks, I'm honored.

Wait here, I'll grab us dessert! Okay?

Good for you.

You hurt your feet?

How did you know?

Who do you think I am?

I forgot.

Why did you whisper that?

It wouldn't be good if Kurotaki finds out I'm a guy, right?

Why is that?

What do you mean, why?

Who wants a guy pretending to be a girl coming near the girl you're interested in.

It's uncomfortable, at least.

If someone is bothered by that,

I'd stop liking them, even Mr. Kurotaki.

But there's no way he would be.

Anyway, show me your feet.

I'm fine! See?

Look at me!

Put me down, you'll break your arm!

They wouldn't break from this.

But I'm heavy.

- It's fine. - Haruka?

What's going on?

Oh, crap.

- I'm bunking with her? - Is that a problem?

Must be nice being so happy-go-lucky.

I bet she likes that.

How do you think of me right now, Mr. Kurotaki?

I have the most fun being with you, Hikaru.

Do it for me.

Why did you drink so much?
