One day, a high school girl suddenly came to my door and said she wanted to return a favor!
When I asked her why, she told me that she was the crow that I had saved before.
I let her in, still wondering about what was going on, but she turned out to be so clumsy that I had to save her again...!?
A slapstick love comedy that began with a favor that must be repaid!!!
