Story 1: The one where the girl falls in love really easily but once she confesses she stops liking the guy.
Story 2: The one where the girl trips trying to reach the bus. She falls and a guy helps her pick up her things and get to the bus. A year later she thinks the same boy is in her class but he is a very cold guy.
Story 3: The one about the girl who hopes her actual life is a dream she will wake up from soon. She isn’t happy with what she is, and her feelings are amplified when she meets a guy she likes.

Story 1: Okay, I was in love with the guy in this story for some reason. He was just so friendly and reliable. What I admire about the mangaka is how she makes boys who are very true to life and likeable. I thought the story was interesting and had a lot of potential but somehow towards the end I lost it. The confession wasn’t satisfying and her make up face was a little bit not cute. Maybe if the mangaka had focused more on his feelings more (since he had been holding back all this time) during the confession it would have been better.
Story 2: I loved this guy too! So rough around the edges! A very cute story. It also had a few uncomfortable moments around the end and the ending was not too conclusive but cute J
Story 3: I never expected a story like this. The fact that she even attempted to write a story on this topic is really neat. I liked the message behind this story a lot. And liked the vague ending in this one. Haha Because I didn’t want to see the protagonist get hurt.
Bye Bye Little
Story 1- The one about a reliable girl who has to take care of her little brother and tend the house since her dad passed away and her mother works. She never relies on any one but herself until she again meets a childhood friend who has changed from a cry baby to a reliable young man. She used to take care of him but recently he has been returning the favor, evoking both painful feelings about her past and romantic feeling in the present.
Story 2- The one about the girl who confesses to the guy she likes and is accepted. However, he is very detached with her and her feeling begin to fade without her notice. She begins to like her boyfriend's friend instead.
Story 3- The one where a noncute girl falls for her close guy friend who only likes cute girls.
Story 4- The one about a couple who are perceived by outsiders as perfect but who in reality have a lot of problems in their home lives.
Review:
Story 1- I really really liked this story. I was very sad when she said she had promised her dad she wouldn’t cry. I LOVED THE BOY IN THIS STORY! Such a cute mole, and eyes, and hair. And he was so reliable. I wished I could have seen a little bit more of what happened after she confessed to him!!!
Story 2- I liked the break up scene because they both acknowledged that they had changed and their feelings had changed. The rest of the story overall didn’t do it for me. Haha
Story 3- I didn’t like this one too much because the guy was stupid. Haha~ and her confession in front of their mutual friends was embarrassing.
Story 4- The ran away from home. The end. WHAT!!!?! Where is the story? Lol I didn’t like this one too much.

And thus, an overflowing love begins...
Volume 2 contains the oneshots "Second Bloom" and "An Unrequited Love"
Review:
I didn't like the actual story much. I preferred the oneshots at the end of the 2nd volume.
