Hayato Fujii is a closeted gay man. To live a peaceful life, he keeps his sexuality a secret due to the trauma he experienced in high school. That is, until one day, an openly gay coworker, Yusuke Kai, blackmails him with a photo of him kissing another man. Kai promises not to expose him as long as Fujii sleeps with him just once. Fujii reluctantly agrees, but when the moment arrives, Kai seems inexperienced...? A wonderful, bittersweet love story between two men from different worlds and with completely different personalities that will pull at your heartstrings!

    Good story
    This review contains spoilers. Sometimes I feel the story is a bit rushed but it’s a good story. I like how the background of each ml is slowly revealed. They are bot caring about each other in their own way.

    ほっこり
    読むとほっこりする作品です。攻めの自然な感じがかっこよすぎます。受けも純粋でエッチシーンの言葉責めもいい感じです。

    リアリティのある物語
    This review contains spoilers. フィクションだし、マンガならではの出来事や設定もあるけど、この作品は割とリアルに近いものがあるんじゃないかと思いました。ゲイであることを隠している先輩とゲイであることを公言している後輩。隠さなきゃならないと思うに至る過程と経験に辛さと悲しさを感じますが、まだまだ偏見に満ちた世の中、そう簡単に巣を曝け出すことができない事情もわかる。かといって公にして堂々としている人の方が幸せなのかといえばそうでもない。悪意に満ちた偏見で陰口を言っていた職場の男性に怒りを覚えたし、吐き気がするほど嫌だけど、でもそんな人がまだまだいっぱいいるのだと思うとなんとも言えない悲しい気持ちになります。過去のトラウマを乗り越えやっと自分の気持ちに正直に向き合う決断をした藤井と、長年の片想いがようやく実った甲斐くん。まだまだ偏見に満ちた世の中だけど、2人には堂々とこれからも愛を育んでいってほしいです!

    続きがあってとてもうれしい
    This review contains spoilers. 余韻に浸りたくなる作品。嫌な人も登場するけどそれ以上にすてきな人に囲まれていて、これからの明るい未来を予感させる。ママと藤井さんが似ていてちょっとややこしかった。

Two ships passing in the night, but wake up together!
This is the perfect remedy for anyone who's become jaded about love! Yusuke is your typical introverted IT office worker, but he's just so pure! Hayato, on the other hand, is the complete opposite. He's outgoing and the apple of everyone's eye. While cute and heartwarming, it also tackles complicated issues such as being out of the closet or not and how that affects your life. There's no judgment, but it gives you a great peek into the lives of these two, who must tackle the issues that arise because of how they approach their lives. It's super cute and their relationship is messy, but so relatable. An absolute definite recommend to anyone looking for a good, cute romance to dive into!
