幼なじみが過保護〈ママ〉すぎてツライ
Hina is in love with her childhood friend Yakumo, and she has never managed to tell him. That alone would be hard enough, but Yakumo is hopelessly overprotective: he fusses over what she eats, how much she sleeps and where she goes, watching over her the way a parent watches over a small child.
Hina is happy to be doted on by the person she likes, but being treated like a daughter is unbearable. Determined to be seen as a woman rather than a child to be looked after, she tries her hardest to make Yakumo look at her that way.
Yakumo, meanwhile, cannot help himself, and every one of her attempts runs into his urge to protect her. What follows is a running battle between a girl who wants a lover and a boy who keeps behaving like a mother.
