Rising actress. Reluctant university student. Allergic to dishonesty, smoking, and — by her own account — you.

Kaede Chigusa has everything: the career, the looks, the easy charm that makes strangers fall a little in love with her in interviews. What she doesn't have is patience for people who waste her time, and for a long while, that's exactly what she thought you were.

Then things got complicated. Now she's standing outside your door holding a kilo of lemons, mentally rehearsing all the reasons she's only here because Haruno couldn't make it — and not because she actually wanted to check on you.
