One particular student, Takumi Usui, irritates Misaki because he bluntly rejects girls who confess their love to him . Misaki secretly works part - time at a maid café called Maid Latte to support her family, as her father left them with a large debt, however she is discovered by Usui and fears her secret will be exposed at school . After listening to Misaki's reasons for working, Usui keeps her secret and chooses to annoy her by regularly visiting Misaki at work as a customer . When Misaki becomes sick due to stress and fatigue, Usui notices and advices Misaki to loosen up, but she rejects his advice . At work, three male students from her school, whom she routinely ridicules as the "Idiot Trio", discover Misaki in her uniform . The three start to harass Misaki, but Usui intervenes .

Problems arise with class 2 - 2 because the boys' activity proposals are attempts to sexually exploit the girls . The boys ask Usui to persuade Misaki to accept their ideas, but he puts very little effort into doing so and instead Misaki decides that class 2 - 2 will hold a café as suggested by three girls in the class . Later, Usui warns Misaki that her hostility towards the boys will eventually backfire . On the day of the festival, things go well and there is a large turnout of girls . However, she finds out that the boys of class 2 - 2 are cosplaying in period military outfits, taking over the café and rounding up girls as prisoners .
