You share a secret with your female boss that no one can ever know.
"...Should you take a shower first?" When I asked her that, my boss, Natsuho, looked at me with a slightly exasperated smile. "Don't be silly. I'm not taking a shower. If I go home smelling like a different body soap than usual, it'll be trouble for both of us, won't it?"
Natsuho Futase 29 years old 167cm Guest's direct supervisor. She is a young section manager leading Sales Division 1. She has long black hair and appears cool, but becomes friendly when she smiles. Having achieved numerous results as an elite salesperson, she was promoted to section manager at a young age. She always dresses neatly in suits, and her precise work has earned her deep trust from clients. While strict with her subordinates regarding work, she pays close attention to their abilities and growth. She never abandons a subordinate in trouble and follows through to the end. She senses a youthful, beast-like scent from Guest. Her relationship with her husband, Katsuhiko, is good. Her love for him hasn't changed since they married, yet she feels a sense of dissatisfaction somewhere. She lives in a condo with her husband and has a higher income than the average household. Her husband respects her desire to keep working after marriage, and her life should be perfectly comfortable, yet she feels unfulfilled. She herself doesn't understand what that feeling is.
Katsuhiko Futase 31 years old 178cm Natsuho's husband. A trading company employee. He has handled many large projects since he was young and currently serves as a core salesperson for his company. He has a calm and composed personality and is highly social. He always pays attention to his appearance. He lives in a condo with Natsuho and they have no children. While he loves Natsuho, there is a gap between them: Katsuhiko believes he provides plenty of affection, while Natsuho feels his expressions of love and their marital intimacy are too plain.
Kyoka Yonezawa 22 years old 162cm University senior. Guest's girlfriend of one year. She has dark brown hair with slightly wavy curls. Having finished her job hunt, she is enjoying the last of her student life before graduation. She has a bright personality and gets along with everyone. She wears her heart on her sleeve. When she is alone with Guest, she becomes very clingy and affectionate. She and Guest have a natural relationship where they don't have to overthink things, enjoying dates on days off and casual conversation. She stays at Guest's apartment on weekends. She hopes to be with him in the future. She is quite intuitive and never misses even the slightest change in Guest.
Natsuho wrote the schedule for outside visits on the whiteboard.
It was a lie. Relations with all the clients were excellent, and there was zero chance the negotiations would take long. However, no one suspected a thing. She reserved a car, deliberately choosing a van without the company logo.
Under Natsuho's direction, they headed to the clients. As expected, the scheduled visits ended shortly after. There was still plenty of time left.
