Summary:
Yumi is a first year student at the Lillian School For Girls, an exclusive all girl's catholic school. The school has a tradition that older girls take a younger girl as their little sister or "soeur" in order to instruct and look out for them. Though Yumi admires Sachiko, a reserved second year student who is a member of the student council, she has no hopes of being chosen as her soeur. When an innocent encounter leads Sachiko to impulsively ask Yumi to be her soeur, Yumi is suddenly brought into the inner circle of the Roses, who are the members of the student council. With Sachiko at her side, Yumi begins to unravel and understand the relationships between the Roses and their soeurs and figure out her own feelings for Sachiko. The prestigious Tokyo all-girls Catholic school, Lillian School For Girls, where Yumi Fukuzawa is starting her first year, has a tradition that the older girls take a younger girl as their sœur, or little sister, to instruct and look out for them. Yumi is chosen the girl she most admires, reserved, popular, second year Sachiko who is a member of the student council.
