Official synopsis Publisher
If you’ve got no objections…
I’ll spend tonight with you.
Bar manager Nagisa has been in one-sided love with his coworker, Haruma, for two years… so when Haruma breaks up with his girlfriend, Nagisa assumes he doesn’t stand a chance. And since he can’t be with the one he loves, anyone else will do for the night.
When Haruma stops Nagisa going home with his hookup, Nagisa suggests they go home together instead… the last thing he expects is for Haruma to agree.
Sex is one thing, love is another. There’s no way Haruma could love Nagisa the way he loved his girlfriend… is there?
