Description
A modern retelling of the Ouran Highschool Host Club but with a twist on the main love interests. Haruhi is forced to become part of the host club despite being a girl and grows irritated with the ignorance of the others but there was one person who stuck out. He never commented on her status, her appearance, or tries to change her. Her respect for him was unlike any other. Takashi watches the others and tries to understand why they wanted to change Haruhi. He silently watches over the club while somehow getting closer to Haruhi. The two formed a mutual respect and friendship or so they think until Ritsu Kasanoda falls in love with Haruhi. While he was supposed to be Takashi's apprentice, Takashi cannot help but feel hostile when he sees him with Haruhi even though he treats her with the same respect he does. Perhaps their respect for one another had turned into something else when neither one of them realized.
