Summary:

Yoshimura Mai started high school with a mission: to have a boyfriend. In middle school, classmates teased her for being frumpy, so Mai gave herself a makeover before moving on to higher education.

Opportunity presents itself when a guy bumps into her on the first day of school. Mai initially thought he was cool. Then she decided, as they had class together and she found out his name is Ishigaki Sen, and that he's a colossal jerk and isn't worth her time.

Later that day, opportunity presented itself to Mai once more when a basketball hit Mai on the head just as she's heading home with her friend, Tomo. Just as this guy was apologizing to her, Sen appears. Mai finds out that this guy, Azuma Yaezou, is Sen's best friend.

None of these events really had much use for Mai, since she decided that Sen's a jerk and she's not impressed with Yaezou either. But one day, Tomo invited Mai to get together with their middle school friends. She brushes Tomo off and walks home by herself only to run into a bunch of their old classmates. It wasn't long before they were making catty remarks about how she used to look like. Mai started having horrible flashbacks of how her old crush said he didn't want to have anything to do with her. At that moment, she bumped into Sen. She instinctively grabbed onto him and introduced him to her old classmates as her boyfriend.

Sen played along and later admonished her for possibly hurting Tomo's feelings. The whole thing made Mai revert back to her original decision, that Sen's cool.

...hmmm then where's the love triangle there? well, Yoshimura Mai has a two main love rivals, and one is actually a guy. So just find it out by reading the manga, and post your comments about the manga in this thread ^^
