Every room Mona Kawai steps into turns her into the focal point—managing this constant glare is simply part of her routine. Her unshakable belief in her allure, however, wavers when she encounters Medaka Kuroiwa, a new transfer to the same high school. While all other peers shower her with admiration, Medaka scowls whenever they meet. Interpreting his coolness as a challenge, Mona unleashes every tactic to win him over, only to face one grim expression after another.
It turns out Medaka"s apathy toward Mona stems from his aspiration to become a monk, requiring him to abandon worldly attachments. As unaware Mona escalates her efforts, all her schemes may ultimately lead her to fall for him instead. Despite her bold attempts, the more she pushes, the clearer it becomes that his quiet resolve is a shield against any romantic entanglement in the corridors of her heart.
