Dialogue in this work
Page 1
- I dropped you off properly around here, but are your feet okay?
- Huh?!
- Huh?!
- Hmm...?
- Ah.
- Mhm.
- Oh my?!
Page 2
- Whaaaaaaaaat—?!
- I guess Tsukishima wasn't in the mood for that... So that's the kind of person I was...
- If so, I'm embarrassed for getting all worked up by myself...
- This hand-holding, whaaaat?!
- No, but...
- But we're holding hands in a lover's grip, so firmly?!
- The truth is...
- ?!
Page 3
- A lot happened, and the timing just felt right...
- I was thinking maybe it would be better if we stayed at a hotel.
- !
- But...
- I promised to take you home...
- ...and it's still our first date.
- I want to cherish my relationship with Tsuruse...
- But, um... for today, just a little longer...
- Please let us stay like this.
Page 4
- Huh... so that means...
- Tsukishima wants that kind of relationship too, but...
- you're saying you were being sincere with me today... is that it?
Page 6
- Sh... Is it... here? No... not yet.
Page 7
- Okay, this will be fine.
- Here you go.
- Oh.
- Since we shared the ride, let me at least pay my share...
- No, no, it was my fault for missing my stop and all that.
- Let me cover this, as your older superior.
- Thanks for the ride, Tsukishima.
Page 8
- Ugh...
- If this were a date, I would've wanted to pay, but...
- ...I'm sorry. Thank you very much.
- If you feel bad, I'll look forward to you treating me next time.
- Yes!
- So, this is your place, Department Head...
- Ah, no, no, you don't have to call me Department Head...
- It's amazing...
- You think so?
- ...So, Tsukishima, what are your plans now?
- It's gotten quite late, though.
- You're right... I might miss the last train, so I'll figure something out nearby.
- ...In that case,
- I have a suggestion...
- ?
Page 9
- ...Or rather... this isn't an invitation from your boss, but from me as a woman...
- Would you... like to stay over?
- !
Page 10
- Huh? Is that really okay?! No, but?!
- But! We're not quite at that stage in our relationship yet...
- Ah, um... I'm happy, but that's not what I mean!
- Not yet...
- Knowing the sincere Tsukishima from earlier,
- I figured you'd say that.
- But I can't hold back anymore!
- So I'll be the one to take another step...
- Forward!
- Tsukishima, um...
Page 11
- Ouch!
- Ah.
Page 12
- ...I... I did it?!
- I... I didn't mean to, but...
- S-So it all worked out in the end...?!
- Department Head... Masaki...
- ...No.
- !
Page 13
- Masaki...
- !
- I love you. Please go out with me.
- ...I'm sorry. It feels like you ended up setting the stage for everything... Even though it was our first date, I should have been more proactive.
Page 14
- J-Just being called by my first name by the person I like... m-makes me feel... this way...
- It's like a jolt of electricity shot through my head...
- So much has happened today,
- and I'm already at my limit, but now...
- T-To be kissed, called by my first name, and then confessed to...
- Huh?! A confession?!
- U-Um...
- Are you okay?
- Yes?!
- Ah.
- Right.
- U-Um...
Page 15
- Thank you. I... I like you too.
- I look forward to it, Tsukishima... no,
- Shu... Shu.
Page 16
- Mph.
- H-Have you calmed down a bit?
- You're pretty bold, you know.
- This is the lobby; it'll be bad if someone sees us.
- ...Want to come to my room?
- ...Yes.
Page 17
- This really is an amazing apartment building...
Page 18
- Please, make yourself comfortable.
- Her apartment is amazing too...
Page 19
- There, all set.
- Ah... thank you.
- Good job, me, for cleaning up yesterday!
- Hey!
- I never imagined a guy would be coming over today...
- Sh-Shu, don't hold back.
- Come sit over here.
- Actually...
Page 20
- Things kind of snowballed into this, but...
- I have a boyfriend...
- ...now!
- Not at all.
- ...But now that we're actually boyfriend and girlfriend, what are we supposed to do?
- At work, there are procedures,
- and the results are easy to see, but...
Page 21
- I don't really get how romance, with all its emotions, works...
- I'm sure that I like Tsukishim... Shu, but...
- I mean, he did say he likes me, but...
- what part of me does he actually like...?
- Honestly... I myself...
- ...don't know what's so great about me.
- At work,
- people are scared of me... I don't get it... but...
- Shu, um...
Page 22
- I don't know if this is how it works in romance, but...
- If this were work... proper communication (Ho-Ren-So) would be key,
- so I'll be direct and... ask!
- I want to ask you something,
- ...what part of me... do you like?
- Huh?
Page 23
- What's he going to say...
- Wait, am I being annoying right now...?
- Um,
- See, he's struggling! I messed up!
- Masaki, you were always beautiful, with a great figure, and your expressions are cute, and just wonderful...
- At work, you're so capable and someone I respect,
- and in your private life, your hobbies are adorable, and you yourself are adorable too.
Page 24
- It's embarrassing to be told that so directly...!
- B-Beautiful and cute...
- Yes.
- I've pretty much only ever been told I'm scary, though...?!
- Well... your intense gaze at work might seem scary to some people, but...
- You always follow up properly, and your evaluations are fair,
- so I didn't find you as scary as people said.
- There are various other reasons I fell for you, though...
- I was drawn to you from the beginning, and every time we talked, I found myself liking you more.
- I see... Yeah, thank you.
- I'm happy you think so well of me... but,
- You're not convinced?
- No, it's just that,
Page 25
- It's embarrassing to admit, but I haven't really experienced this kind of thing much before.
- I've always been so tense at work, and I feel like people only see me as scary.
- So, I don't really get what it feels like to be liked.
- Well then...
- !
Page 26
- This is to show you just how much you're liked, Masaki...
- Can you accept that now?
- Mhm.
- I do...
- My mind... is going blank... this is bad...
- Oh, right.
Page 27
- A-Actually,
- I bought some cosmetics for you, Shu!
- Want to try covering up that scratch with these?
- Oooh?!
- W-Wait, at this rate, my body won't be able to handle it!
- It's still too early for that... right?... Yeah!
- ?
- Yes, please!
- Alright!
Page 28
- Okay.
- S-So, how is it? Is the scratch much less noticeable now?
- Oooh...
- Th-This was supposed to be a break, but my heart is racing!
- Wait, isn't Shu even cuter than me like this?
Page 29
- Thank you so much!
- Maybe cute things would look good on me like this?
- Just kidding...
- Shu really is adorable...!
- Ah.
- Also, as a regular habit,
- if you moisturize with skin toner and moisturizing milk...
- Ack!
- There.
Page 30
- Careful!
- ...Masaki, are you okay?
- Whoa—He's holding me!
- Y-Yeah.
- Ah?!
Page 31
- Ah—!
- Shu, I'm so sorry! Your pants...!
- I'll wipe them right now!
- I-It's okay... It's just a little.
- More importantly, is your right foot okay...?
Page 32
- ...Is it bad if I touch this right now?
- It'll feel weird...
- W-What I should do now is...
- I-I can't just leave him like that.
- I'll wash them, so just go take a shower.
- He's staying over, so it's not weird...
- You can use this.
- Sorry, then I'll take a bath.
- There's makeup remover and stuff, so feel free to use it.
- Okay—thank you very much.
- Ah.
- Shu, about your change of clothes...
Page 33
- !!
- S-Sorry.
- I thought this earlier too, but...
- Shu's body is amaaaazing—!
Page 34
- ...Hh!
- ...I slammed the door shut without thinking, but...
- Maybe because this kind of thing doesn't happen often, I was flustered and kept reacting passively...
- Being passive might not have been good...
- Honestly, I wanted to see more...
- Okay... I've decided.
Page 35
- If that's the case, time to prepare!!
- Umm...
Page 36
- With this...
Page 37
- Here I go!
- Shu.
- I'll leave your change of clothes and a towel here.
Page 38
- Thank you, Masaki.
- Shu, do you know which one is the makeup remover?
- Um...
- ...Actually,
- I don't know which is which...
- I'll just wash with whatever and be done with it.
- Ah...
- Maybe I should have told him which one it was first.
- It's not good if you don't remove makeup properly.
Page 39
- Is that so?
- Yeah, your skin will get rough...
- Aside from the scratch, your skin is beautiful, so you should take proper care of it.
- I see...
- So,
- you probably don't know which one to use, and...
- Huh?!
Page 40
- I'll get in with you and teach you directly.
- We're already dating.
- There's no need to hold back.
Page 41
- It's still embarrassing...
Page 43
- First...
- Just one bath towel is embarrassing, but...
- More than that...
Page 44
- I'm happy to be with you, Shu...♥
- Understand?
- !
- Y-Yes!
- Mhm.
- Okay, then try it.
- He seemed unusually out of it for Shu...?
- Well, anyway,
- This is...♥
Page 45
- Looking closely again, Shu has a great body...
- I wonder if he used to do some sports.
- Or maybe he's still working out...
- His skin is beautiful too... Is this what youth is?
- I-I'm done...
- O-Okay, then shall I wash your back?
- ...?
- What's wrong?
Page 46
- Bending forward...
- No, this is...
- ...Huh? My naked body is attractive...?
- Masaki's attractive naked body... If I look at it in such a bright place...
- Seriously?! I had no idea I was that...?!
Page 47
- No, a woman my age with a worn-out body like this...
- There's no demand for it, right?
- No, no, that's not true...!
- ...Well, I mean, to some extent,
- there have been some sexual harassment-like incidents, but
- that's just because of these pointlessly large breasts.
- I never thought they'd be considered attractive.
- Not at all!
Page 48
- The main reason I fell for you, Masaki, was your personality, but
- your... body is also amazing...
- I'm sure others have noticed too...
- N-No!
- Anyway,
- Ah-
- !
- Having seen your naked body, Masaki, I...
- I'm like this, you see!
- Woah...
- I can't lie about this, so please believe me!
Page 49
- Amazing...!
- So he really does find me attractive...
- Otherwise, he wouldn't be like that...
- So that's what happens to guys...
- Thinking about it, being exposed like this... is suddenly incredibly embarrassing.
- But...
- I'm sorry for such an unsightly display...
- No...
- It's okay.
- Actually, thank you.
Page 50
- If you really think I'm attractive...
- !
- Want to... touch me?
- After this, they touched each other.
Page 51
- Excuse me...!
Page 53
- Still,
- Shu's...
- That...
- was amazing.
- Masaki...
- !
Page 54
- For a change of clothes... this was all
- I had...
- This is a little embarrassing...
- Nooo,
- That's the only kind I have, you see.
- It suits you! It's cute!
- W-Well, if that's the case, I'm glad.
- Then come over here.
- Once I'm done preparing various things,
- ...Shall we sleep?
- !
Page 55
- Alright!
- All done!
- Well then...
- Yes...
- Then I'll...
- Shall we go to bed?
- Then, this way is...
Page 56
- This is the bedroom!
- Wow...!
- It's a cute room.
- Ehehe.
- I hold back on my hobbies in the living room because of guests, but
- I decorate the bedroom however I like.
- I see.
- But anyway,
- Sleeping together is...
Page 57
- !
- To come this far and then sleep separately...
- I-I'd love to do that, but...
- Don't say it.
- If we sleep together, I definitely won't be able to hold back.
- Preparations...
Page 58
- Don't you worry about that.
- I didn't know which one would be good, but
- I did... prepare some.
- They slept together.
Page 60
- They took their time until dawn.
Page 61
- Mmm.
- Good morning.
- Did you sleep well?
- G-Good morning.
- Well, this is... you know?
Page 62
- …It's already late evening.
- Are your clothes okay?
- Yes, thanks to you.
- That's good.
- Well then, I should probably get going soon.
- Okay.
- Do you know the way back? Shall I walk you to the station?
- No, it'll be dangerous for you if it gets dark...
- Then at least let me see you to the entrance.
- Okay, this is fine here.
- ...Okay.
Page 63
- Thank you very much.
- Masaki, today was...
- !
- Mmh...
- Well then!
- It was an intense weekend...
- However... now that I've calmed down and think about it clearly...
Page 64
- Didn't our relationship progress way too fast in just one day?!
- I'm totally fine with it, but... was I too aggressive...?
- Is this how adult relationships are supposed to go...?
Page 68
- Department Head Tsuruse is usually scary, but...
- during this busy season, she's even more on edge.
- She's exactly like an oni, isn't she?
- They think I can't hear them.
- Umm, about that...
- They really don't get it...
Page 69
- An oni this cute is more than welcome...
- Huh?
- What are you talking about?!
- Anyway, Shu, this is still really embarrassing...
- No, no, it looks great on you, Masaki.
- Sheesh!
Page 70
- Good morning.
- It's Valentine's Day, but let's ban the exchange of chocolates within the office.
- Distributing obligation chocolates is probably a burden for the female employees,
- and it's probably tough for the male employees to think about return gifts.
- Those who absolutely want to exchange them should do so in private.
- To Department Head Tsuruse...? No, surely not...
Page 71
- U-Um...
- I couldn't give this to you at the office, but... here you go...
- Ah, but this isn't an obligation chocolate... it's... it's true love chocolate! ♥
- It's delicious!
