LatestAfter attending their colleague Tamura's wedding, Tateishi and Mitsuya walk home together. They begin to talk about their relationship before they started dating and reminisce. At the beginning of their careers, the two were known for being like cats and dogs, but after training, they gradually grew closer and ended up spending their days off together. One day, they go to a pastry fair. When a vendor mistakes them for a couple, an embarrassed Tateishi denies it, saying, "We're just colleagues." Hearing this, Mitsuya wears a somewhat sad expression... From "just colleagues" to "lovers." The beginning of their romance, the truth is now revealed—!
Yui Mitsuya and Masugu Tateishi aren't just any coworkers—they totally have the hots for each other. His helpful yet humble attitude makes her giddy, and her cuteness leaves him grinning like a fool. Problem is, they're trying to keep their new relationship under wraps to avoid making things awkward at work. But seeing how they can't keep their hands off each other, they run the risk of spilling their little secret with each passing day at the office.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The original manga by Akamaru Enomoto ran in Comic Days and gained viral traction specifically for its excruciatingly relatable office micro-moments.
This adapts the 'seinen' tradition of workplace romance—aimed at adult men but beloved by women for its emotional authenticity over fan service.
