Shiroi Heya no Futari (白い部屋のふたり, literally: Our White Room or Couple of the White Room), is one of the earliest shōjo yuri manga by Ryoko Yamagishi, who is included in the Year 24 Group. First published in 1971, it is the story of a romance between two girls at a prestigious all-girls school in France.
The orphaned Resine decides, against her aunt's wishes, to attend the same boarding school as her mother. She finds it difficult to fit herself into the life of the school. Resine must also share a room with Simone, the rebellious daughter of a famous actress. Simone does not make Resine feel welcome, and Simone takes advantage of every chance she gets to cause trouble. Simone goes out late with boys, copies Resine's homework, and teases Resine every time she cries. In spite of everything, the two girls become closer, although Resine cannot name the feeling.
The school puts on a production of Romeo and Juliet - Simone is quickly chosen to be Romeo, whilst Resine is chosen to be Juliet....
