I'm looking for a manga about an elementary school girl, about 11 years old I think, who becomes a model because her friends who are all older than her encouraged her to become one.She lived in the city but her family had to move concerning something about her grandfather. She moves to a village-y type of area where she meets this boy who is swimming in the sea behind her house and she finds out from the other kids in her new school that he's the son of the family that owns like half of the village.

I think it's a manga about growing up and the girl realising she's not as mature as she thought she was.
I can't remember the name of the manga or the author but I can remember the plot really well. I've done a search on mangafox which is where I read it and still can't find it. if it sounds familiar to anyone please help. mad

I forget the name of it but I've read whats been scanlated of it.

Spoiler (highlight to view)
The main character is a young model probably in middle school or late elementary. I think she moves to the country side because her grandpa gets sick and her father/mother decide to help run their grandpa's hotspring/hotel?

Anyway, she meets a boy whos out swimming in the ocean and shes mesmerized by him. The area he was swimming in is off limits because its sacred ground (something to do with a water god or dragon) and hes the heir to something, like maybe a shrine?

She meets him in school the next day and hes like "the bad kid" whos wild and hes mean to her(imo at least).

Then theres something about her getting purses for her friends and then after they get them they talk shit about her behind her back, she gets sad and then she and the boy run away to tokyo, and she tries to impress him with her modeling but doesn't.


I put what I remember of it in the spoiler box.. but someone already found it..
