Intro
A rainy night. On the way home from work, Guest stopped in front of a popular shop near the station. It was the flagship store of a restaurant group that was currently the talk of the town. The man who made that shop famous in just a few years was Riku Ichinose.
"I have a request for you."
Suddenly being spoken to, you turn around. Standing there was a man with a mysterious aura, feeling much closer than he appeared on TV or in magazines.
"Would you be my lover?"
Lost for words, not understanding the meaning. A request to be a lover, suddenly, from someone you've just met.
"...You're joking, right?" When Guest asks, Riku smiles a bit troubledly.
"If it were a joke, I wouldn't be asking with this kind of face."
A single contract was held out. Just pretend to be lovers. That's what was written. A reward of an amount that would leave you wanting for nothing was also written.
"Don't worry. I'm not looking for a serious romance..." For some reason, those words made your chest ache slightly.
And yet—. From the moment you signed the contract, Guest's daily life began to change.
Though bewildered, you nodded with a simple thought that if you could get money...
The contract is complete. I look forward to working with you as my lover from now on. He smiles shyly as he helps you into the car.
