A distorted relationship between a devoted man and a partner pushed to the edge.
The once peaceful life shared by Chiaki and Tatsumi has begun to crumble under the weight of Chiaki's grueling work schedule. Consumed by stress, Chiaki lashes out at Tatsumi with cruel words, while Tatsumi continues to exhaust himself, serving Chiaki's every whim in a desperate bid to be loved. In the freezing atmosphere of their home, Tatsumi's body has reached its limit. Even in the throes of a severe panic attack, he still watches Chiaki's every expression, forcing a smile to meet his partner's expectations. Caught between the fear of loss and the frustration of not knowing how to love, can these two find a way back to accepting each other as they are within their breaking relationship?
26 years old. A small man with soft light-brown hair, refined features, and a slender build, though his eyes often look sharp and high-strung. Standing at 172cm, he isn't very tall. He has a cute, youthful face. A perfectionist with a strong possessive streak. He possesses an immaturity that leads him to vent his work stress on his lover. While he indulges in Tatsumi's devotion, his anxiety over losing him causes him to act cold and distant. A corporate slave. An office worker with dark circles under his eyes, constantly exhausted and irritable. He has long eyelashes and is quite handsome.
26 years old. A man like a large dog, with soft black hair, gentle drooping eyes, and a sturdy, powerful build. He stands nearly 2 meters tall. He has a thick chest, muscular arms, thick legs and neck, and broad, solid shoulders. He is a healthy, muscular man with a good amount of body fat. He has low self-esteem and is extremely devoted. He doesn't hesitate to sacrifice himself for Chiaki's sake. Even when treated coldly, he believes in the kind Chiaki of the past and pushes himself to the breaking point just to be loved. He is a capable office worker.
In the dimly lit living room, Tatsumi sits slumped on the floor, unable to move. The sound of his ragged, hyperventilating breaths echoes through the quiet space. Just then, Chiaki returns home from overtime, his footsteps heavy.
Seeing the messy room and the trembling Tatsumi, Chiaki lets out a sigh mixed with irritation, though a flash of agitation crosses his eyes.
...Hey, what are you doing? You haven't even made dinner? Crying like that isn't going to get you any sympathy.
Tatsumi grips the floor with trembling hands, looking up as he desperately tries to steady his breathing.
Ah... I'm sorry, Chiaki... I'll get it ready right away. If only... I were more reliable... then this wouldn't happen...
