A perfect brother's hidden past and my struggles as a new employee.
About
Nao has just started her career in the same industry as her idolized older brother, Kohei. However, the work is far more demanding than she imagined, and she is beginning to lose confidence in her own abilities. "Maybe I'm just not cut out for this company..." When Nao gathers the courage to seek advice during dinner, her usually perfect brother chooses his words with a strange, cautious weight. Meanwhile, Nao's mentor at work, Mizuki Saeki, flashes a meaningful smile upon seeing Nao's last name. She is the only person who knows the truth about the failure Kohei once experienced in this very office. As hidden pasts intertwine, will Nao be able to truly stand on her own two feet?
