Volume 2:
Tomita, a straight office worker who never takes love seriously, has sex with Saito, a bar owner who is unconscious of his loneliness. The result is... perfection. They continue to be sex partners, until one day, Tomita begins to understand his feelings.
Kitagawa and Natsume, who are supposed to love each other and having sex already, claim that they're not dating yet! What is happening?!
The second book takes these 4 hunks on a rollercoaster "love story"!
Volume 3:
The shy office worker, Kitagawa, has continued his secret relationship with his senpai, the cool guy Natsume, in the office. During a trip, Natsume runs into his former colleague and ex-boyfriend, making Kitagawa unhappy. Natsume, who is forced to introduce his new boyfriend to his ex-boyfriend, asks his friend Tomita for help. What is going to happen to these two lovers now that they can’t be honest to each other?!
Volume 4:
Tomita has been living with the barman, Saito, for a while. Despite the difference in their lifestyles, the two are leading a sweet and calm daily life. However, there is one thing that Tomita cannot get off of his chest; How Saito had agreed to act as his best friend’s lover. Ultimately, feeling depressed by himself, Tomita decides to go drinking with his kouhai, Tahara. Drowning in his own thoughts and looking for a way to catch Saito off guard, Tomita fails to notice that Tahara harbors a crush on him.
Volume 5:
Saitou Atsushi’s bar has been thriving and he’s living a very busy life.
Saitou’s lover, Tomita Megumu, is living with him. Saitou knew Tomita would go off somewhere if he left him alone for too long, so he intended to make more time for Tomita by hiring Sakamoto, a taciturn young man, to work part-time in the bar.
Two weeks into working, Sakamoto sometimes showed an attitude as if he was judging Saitou. While Saitou was concerned about this, Sakamoto accepted the invitation of a regular customer and got dead drunk. Having no other choice, Saitou brought him to his home, and when Sakamoto woke up, he flew into a rage against Tomita…?!
Saitou’s past is gradually revealed, and on the other hand, the nature of his relationship with Tomita is also changing… Less...

I sincerely wasn’t expecting this one to be this good. Thought it was going to be your typical coworkers become lovers story, with the usual clichés and tropes but it was not.
All the characters are mature and thoughtful, the conflicts aren’t based on stupid misunderstandings, lack of communication and childish behaviors. They think before they do anything stupid, they talk, communicate and voice their thoughts at some point. It's like the mangaka tried her best to dodge all the BL clichés possible and in result it made her characters feel more human, natural and complex. Vol 4 really showed that with the Saito / Tomita / Tahara situation. Also excellent point, the ukes aren’t feminine or twink but masculine (like you can't tell with one glance who's top and bottom).
I like the 4 characters but I especially love the two bottom Natsume and Tomita. As for the couple, I prefer the side couple Saito & Tomita because their storyline was more interesting and their couple had more development in just 1 vol. Whereas the main couple story barely moved in vol 1 & 2. But reading vol 3 I know now that the mangaka intended it to be like that

when Kitagawa said to Natsume "Together we can just take half step each to approach the other. It may be slower ... But we are definitely doing our best".
They're going at their pace but there is still this huge difference of development between the two couples even tho they have the same amount of screen time.The first vol is ok but the 2nd.... Hell Yeah!

Oh boy was I looking forward to volume 2 ever since I first got to know the character of Tomita.... Him being an insanely cute curly boy with a wicked smirk... Instant love!
I felt like the first story was kinda boring and it was too bad that Tomita was introduced as the straight best friend. When bartender san was introduced later I was hooked for real. Leaning that vol 2 was about those two was like a Christmas present. And as expected, it was way better and engaging! One of my new fave yaoi couples!

If only the majority of yaoi manga were this good... I'm honestly in love with Sensei's works. Most of the time there's enjoyable plot, nice, interesting characters, that grow, meaningful dialogues, slow building relationships and consent in sex. Plus her art is amazing.
I really enjoyed this title as well. It's not perfect, but very good. I liked both volumes, but the 2nd one was a tad bit better, because it felt more whole and finished, than the 1st. I'd like to read more about the first couple,

it just bugged me, that even in the end they didn't really resolve the dating issue, which still seemed to disturb Kitagawa, and I did not like that, I want him to be fully happy and content.
