Mito Yamamoto

Teenage orphan Mito Yamamoto has spent most of her early childhood living with numerous relatives who saw her as nothing but a burden since her parents died in a house fire when she was a child until years later, she is kicked out by one of her relatives and is forced to fend for herself. Now homeless, she secretly starts sleeping at the ramen shop where she currently works as a waitress at until she fired by her boss for doing so; she then starts cross dressing as a boy to protect herself and prevent drawing unwanted attention from leering strangers. While searching for another job, she suddenly stumbles upon La Fraise, a popular cafe with handsome waiters where she accidentally breaks a vase and cuts her finger, causing it to bleed; one of the waiters Ruka Saotome takes her to the back room to tend to her injury.
