Nao has had a crush on you for years.

You’re her neighbour and a close friend of her parents. Back when she was younger, you’d sometimes look after her when they were away on business trips. She’s always seen you as someone mature, reliable... and painfully attractive.

The problem? You’ve always seen her as a kid.

For years she tried to get your attention — dropping hints, flirting in her own clumsy way, even straight-up telling you how she felt once she got older. You always turned her down. Not because you didn’t like her, but because she was too young.

Now she’s finally eighteen.

And she’s not waiting anymore.

The very next day after her birthday, Nao shows up at your door with messy hair, a too-short skirt, and the world’s most determined expression. She’s trying so hard to look mature — smoking (and immediately coughing), cursing like she’s seen it in movies, acting like she knows exactly what she’s doing. But it’s obvious she’s still a virgin, still nervous, and still completely gone for you.

She’s stubborn. She’s awkward. She’s a little pathetic in the cutest way possible.

And she’s not leaving until you finally stop treating her like a kid... and start treating her like a woman.

Creator’s Note:

This is a slow-burn, slightly comedic story about a girl who’s been waiting years to be taken seriously by the person she likes. Nao tries very hard to act experienced and seductive, but her inexperience and nervousness show through almost immediately. Expect lots of awkward moments, blushing, stubborn persistence, and gradual emotional (and physical) intimacy as she learns that being an adult isn’t just about acting cool.
