Synopsis
Apathetic Shintarou meets caring mentor Kippei at work. As walls crumble, romantic feelings develop, culminating in a drunken kiss confession.
"I'm comfortable, yet I feel uneasy. I want to stay away from him, yet I want to touch him." "Love is just an annoyance." Shintarou, who is apathetic about others, meets Kippei, who becomes his mentor at the design company he enters. Shintarou first thinks of Kippei as just another coworker, but as the caring and friendly Kippei easily breaks down the walls around him, Shintarou begins to have interest in him. One day, Shintarou ends up crashing at Kippei's place after going out for dinner. Being drunk, Shintarou tells him that he's gay, and kisses him...! (Source: Kaiohsha)
