''[[Cross Heart]]'' is a series of [[Web Original]] [[Yuri Genre]] [[Manga]] by Hikari "AnaKris" Inukai, originally published in Spanish (and partially, English) on [[Deviant ART]]. The series follows the story of Haru, a [[Genki Girl|cheerful schoolgirl]] who finds herself [[Schoolgirl Lesbians|falling in love]] with her [[Broken Bird|aloof but beautiful]] schoolmate Kotomi. Simultaneously, Kotomi is losing an uphill battle against some ''very'' serious childhood traumas underneath a [[Stepford Smiler]] facade. The story is divided into three (or five, depending on how you count) chapters: |
