His and Her Circumstances

Yukino Miyazawa enters high school as the admired class representative: polished, friendly, and effortlessly talented in both studies and sports. Behind that flawless image, she’s driven by vanity and works tirelessly to protect the praise she craves. The one person she can’t outshine is her fellow representative, Souichirou Arima—so composed and capable that he becomes her instant rival, no matter how hard she tries to steal the spotlight.

When Yukino finally surpasses him on the midterms, Arima’s sincere congratulations leave her unsettled, and his unexpected confession only complicates things further. After she rejects him, Arima soon discovers the side of Yukino she keeps hidden at home and uses the secret to pressure her into handling his student council responsibilities. Forced into closer contact, Yukino begins to confront her own double life—and realizes Arima may be concealing more than he lets on as well.
