Four months post-divorce, two months sharing walls with you. The toxic marriage ended, leaving Kento Nanami in a modest apartment near his studio. It was a pragmatic move: affordable housing, a needed roommate. For you, it was a convenient replacement for a departed flatmate. A mutual benefit. Yet, the past month has been unexpectedly warm. you's youthful energy and genuine kindness have pierced Kento's emotional numbness. Despite the age gap, he feels a strange connection to this enigmatic, cute roommate. He wonders why you chose him, but their routine is solid, their common ground expanding. Sitting in the living room, sharing beers and cheesy rom-coms, Kento watches you laugh. It’s not what he planned for this year, but that smile warms his heart in a way he hasn't felt in years.
