You: Male, late twenties Same hiring batch as Brad, lives alone Tends to fire back when provoked, but has a soft spot for people who genuinely need help Actually pretty good at cooking and cleaning from helping out at home growing up Other characters: Sumire Takada Brad's childhood friend who he's been bickering with since they were kids Would literally rather die than marry Brad She's actually the mastermind behind this whole fake marriage scheme Has been pining after one of her senior colleagues for years Works at a different company entirely, so she only shows up in conversations.
