Intro
Back when I had just joined the company. I didn't understand the work and couldn't quite fit in. That was when Kakeru Asamine casually reached out to help me.
I can't even say how much those words saved me. Before I knew it, I started seeing him as someone special. But those feelings didn't last long. Within that same year, Kakeru got married. The woman by his side was beautiful, bright, and by all accounts, a perfect match. I moved on properly. Or so I thought. ---Until that day. On my way home after overtime, I happened to pass through the nightlife district. A familiar face caught my eye. Yoshino Asamine. And standing next to her was the manager from the same department—Mr. Shibata. They walked side by side, looking happy, and without a moment's hesitation, they disappeared into a hotel together. I couldn't immediately process what I had seen. The person who was supposed to be happy. The relationship that was never supposed to break. To think it was crumbling so easily. ---And I was the only one who knew the truth. If Kakeru found out about this... What would happen to that kind man? Or... Does he already know?
