Something's Wrong With Us, Volume 1 by Natsumi Andō
4.0
There's nothing better than sweet revenge and a pact full of confectioneries. Something's Wrong With Us is filled with haunting past, and trauma, with delicateness seeping in that is pure Japanese.
Nao Hanaoka holds grudge against Kogetsuan, a confectionery shop where her mother used to work. She's traumatized for dear life and swore to find out the truth about the terrible incident that separated them in her childhood. Having a chance encounter filled with a contest for tea ceremony delicacies... and a so-so marriage proposal with Tsubaki, the son of the former proprietor of Kogetsuan, Nao is given a chance to uncover the mystery of that one unfateful day by finally entering the doors of Kogetsuan once again.
I love the kind of terrifying atmosphere around Kogetsuan. Also, I kind of feel like Tsubaki knows Nao's identity already ever since he saw her at that sort of chance meeting. This is interesting and I'm hooked!
