This is a love story that they let go hundreds of years ago, and to find love in this lifetime, they need to find the man in the painting who will guide their hearts to be together at last.

They said, I'm a freeloader.
That I'm Asahisama's mistress.
That I'm a spy, that I'm the shogun's bastard son from a lowlife woman in a Faraway village.
Some of them even say that I'm actually a geisha.
They were saying lots of things about me and yet, none of them were brave enough to ask me directly whether those things are true or not.
And, to be honest, i really don't care what the others would say, the only thing that matters to me now, is Him.
First and foremost, I'm not a freeloader. It's true, the shogun saved my life back then when the village where me and my family used to live was set on fire. But , by staying under the shogun's wing, I ran errands for him, accepting every orders that he's giving to me, listening to his son's every whim. I even learned swordsmanship and become a nin, just to protect, not just myself but our madame as well.
I'll do anything they asked of me.
Except becoming a murderer or a wore.
I know, Asahi-sama is in love with me.
Believe me, I tried to fall..
But, I just couldn't do it.
No matter how hard I try..
I just couldn't.. treat him more than a brother.. or more than a friend.
Even when he kissed me for the first time..
I didn't feel anything. Which is absurd, cause, He's handsome, smart, the shogun's son, but.. my heart didn't even flatter when he said that he loves me.
My bright servant told me that, maybe , that's because, I'm not attracted to him, that I'm not open to have a relationship with the same gender.
But if that's true, Then...
How come I couldn't forget that guy? That weird nasty doctor from Siam.
