that kotoch Chan was all she needed stating that she did not require a life partner the scene shifted to a park near a restroom where kotoch Chan had gone to use the bathroom frustrated her mother warned kotoch Chan reminding her that she had said to go to the bathroom before they left she expressed annoyance at having to turn back kotoch Chan explained that she really needed to go murmuring in frustration her mother said they were barely going to make it on time and reminded her that they couldn't afford to be late in a hurry she

ran with her child but something fell from her bag during the rush just then a boy called out informing her that she had dropped something kotoch Chan's mother glanced back and noticed the boy sleeping on a woman's lap the boy signaled to her pointing out that a pouch had fallen from her bag grateful for his help kotoch Chan's mother thanked The Boy The Boy responded affirmatively and then Tuco left with her child as they walked away she found herself thinking about the boy who had been helpful she wondered if he was a college student noting

that it was the first time she had seen someone lounging in a park like that sat at 8:00 a.m. shocked by the scene she covered her mouth with her hand despite his assistance she reminded herself that she needed to ensure kotoch Chan didn't get involved with people like him just then kotoch Chan said she liked the boy her mother asked why and Coto Chan explained that he resembled Ryuga kunun from nine Riders who was popular on morning TV Tuco advised her not to compare him to Ryuga admitting that she also liked Ryuga later while returning

to her apartment after finishing work Tuco suddenly saw the neighbor boy flirting with a girl the girl hugged him and said that today was amazing as usual Tuco also noticed the boy as he SE whom they had met in the park earlier she realized he must be their neighbor and saw he was with a different girl than the one he had been with that morning the boy approached Cotto and asked if she was the same one from that morning adding that they had recently moved in he asked for her name and she replied I'm Nara

codo chanto watched her child thinking to herself oh God she looks so happy kotoo then asked the boy if the girl he had been with earlier was his friend the boy took a breath and responded that she was indeed a friend Tuco thought to herself that the boy definitely seemed like the indecent type Cotto continued chatting with him asking what he and the other girl had been doing he replied that they had been drinking and doing other things mentioning that he had missed class again he thanked her for the help that morning Tuco still concerned

told the boy that he was a student and should be attending class her anger was evident as she admonished him the boy noticed her expression and felt fell silent as she walked away with her child she muttered to herself that she couldn't believe such trash was her neighbor the boy overhearing her wondered if she had just called him trash he thought if drinking and skipping class makes me trash then I guess I do that all the time he felt that was true she was so mean he acknowledged that the mother was tough the boy spoke

into his cell phone and someone on the other end asked about his plans for tomorrow the other person suggested meeting after the third period but the boy replied that he didn't have any money and suggested they meet at his place instead the scene then shifted to Tuco who was working in the office she couldn't believe someone like that was her neighbor someone who didn't go to class played around with girls and was always drunk her anger grew but she thought about her child and quietly mumbled to herself that he was a bad influence on kotoch

Chan at that moment her boss called her addressing her as Nara Chan he smiled and asked how things were going wondering if she had gotten used to working there Tuco replied that she was doing fine thanks to what he had taught her the man complimented her memory and asked if she was 26 he then mentioned that it had been about 10 years since they hired a woman who wasn't a new graduate he added that even the people at the main office had been talking about how pretty she was smiling he noted that they hadn't had

a welcome party for her since she had a child placing his hand on her shoulder her employer suggested treating her to lunch that day instead later after the lunch she thought she shouldn't accepted the offer cause if that would be the case neither her time would have been wasted nor would she have faced any trouble she felt weak and murmured to herself that her will and working time had been taken away from her the cramps from her period hurt so much that she thought she shouldn't even eat she began to feel nauseous and covered her

mouth as she headed to the office kitchen to get some water she overheard a voice asking if she had heard about the new employee The Voice mentioned that narara San was a single mother and someone else expressed surprise saying that it was uncommon they added that the last working mother had always taken time off wondering how long Nara would be able to fulfill her contract noting how tough it was when people couldn't fully commit to their work because of their kids when Tuco returned to her desk with medicine the man asked if she wasn't overloaded

with work that day he told her that since she had a child she shouldn't feel the need to push herself too hard and should feel free to rely on others Tuco feeling angry pressed the medicine into her hand and responded that it was okay stating that she didn't want to use her child as an excuse she was visibly upset with him the man shut stuttering at her reaction murmured to himself that he would do everything perfectly and wondered if he had said something wrong Tuco informed the man that she had finished checking all the records

and asked for his approval he looked at her in Surprise and said he couldn't believe she had done all that by herself on her way home from the office Tuco received a call from the school the staff member asked if she would be able to make it in time addressing her as kotoch Chan's mother the school staff urgently urged too to hurry she apologized saying she was sorry and would come immediately she rushed and arrived just as the Clock Struck 559 Tuco quickly apologized to kotoch Chan for making her wait kotoch Chan noticing her mother

was sweaty commented on it the school staff observing from a distance noticed that Cotto's father was not with her meanwhile both Cotto and Tuco watched other parents hugging their children a little child expressed Joy calling out to their daddy the parents kissed their kids and the father looking tired suggested they eat out the child happily agreed saying they wanted omelette rice the father of hirokun responded playfully asking if the child was tired of always asking for the same thing the child insisted saying they wanted it and urged their father to agree watching this scene tuco's

heart sank she turned to Cotto Chan and said she wanted to be with her forever tears welling up in her eyes at that moment Cotto hugged her mother and said she wanted to be with her forever too her mother looking at her with emotion and stroking her head replied warmly that of course Coto Chan could stay with her forever in the evening as Tuco and Cotto were returning to their apartment Cotto asked her mother if she thought the guy next door would let him play with him his mother replied that he was not allowed to

as she thought the neighbor was trash the scene then shifted evening to their apartment where Tuco was serving food but kotoch Chan wasn't eating Tuco asked what the problem was and insisted that kotoch Chan needed to eat kotoch Chan replied that her mother's Curry was bitter apologizing for the mistake and admitting that she had burnt it that night Tuco was working on feeling upset and overwhelmed struggling to get all the extra work done after putting kotoch Chan to bed Tuco felt dizzy she reflected that she was the only one taking care of kotoch Chan now

Tuco thinking about her mother's words she said apologetically that she was done with men she explained that relying on others made her feel down in many ways and that falling in love only caused problems for someone like her that's why she decided to stick with Cotto Chan in the morning the birds were chirping andot Chan called out for her mother asking what was for breakfast because she was hungry Tuco woke up realizing she had fallen asleep and looked at the time she noticed it was 810 and panicked thinking to herself that she was late do

Tuco quickly instructed Cotto to get changed brush her teeth wash her face and eat some bread urging her to hurry Cotto asked about her mother's breakfast and Tuco assured her that she was fine she then said they needed to hurry as she pulled the door open Tuco suddenly felt dizzy her stomach turned and she collapsed she thought to herself wondering what was happening all of a sudden Tuco feeling nauseous called out to kotoch Chan to stop and explained that she felt dizzy she warned kotoch Chan that if she passed out she would just have to

wait moments later Tuco collapsed kotoch Chan shocked cried out for her mother just then the neighbor boy arrived with his girlfriend discussing breakfast the boy mentioned that he wanted to sleep first suddenly he heard someone crying saying mom wake up he told his girlfriend to go home apolog apologizing the girl was taken aback by his words but eventually left he opened kotoch Chan's door noticing her tears and asked if Tuco was okay politely addressing her as Miss Tuco however told the neighbor boy to stop insisting firmly that she wouldn't rely on men he then asked

for clarification unsure of her intent the boy then lifted Tuco in his arms carried her and gently laid her on the bed covering her Tuco feeling extremely unwell and groaning in pain asked who was he kotoch Chan upset continued to cry calling out for her mother the neighbor boy received a call and answered asking if the caller was from tuco's workplace he explained that she had fainted a little while ago and was now resting apologizing and saying she would be taking the day off he then turned to kotoch Chan and told her that she had

done her best the boy reassured them that everything was fine and advised kotoch Chan to take it easy with her mother for the day and gently patted her kotoch Chan then called him Ryuga mistakenly thinking he was Ryuga Kun the boy surprised asked who that was when Tuco got up she noticed a lot of food on the table holding her head she saw that Cotto was very happy and called out mommy the boy noticing that she was awake asked if she thought it was anemia He also mentioned that he had informed her workplace that she

wouldn't be coming in Tuco replied that she must have really been pushing herself the boy then asked if she was handling everything on her own the boy explained that he had a little sister so he understood the situation but he advised Tuco to rely on people sometimes Tuco apologizing explained that even though she was kotoch Chan's only parent she had no one she could rely on she added that as a working mother whenever she lacked outside help her confidence began to wear thin the boy taking a breath responded by saying that if she relied on

a random guy like him it shouldn't make much of a difference the boy joked that Tuco probably didn't care about a college drunk like him and suggested she should just take advantage of men since they were trash anyway he touched her forehead and said she seemed to be doing better which he found reassuring as he was leaving her house he mentioned that he had made some random food aside from the porridge and told her to eat once she felt up to it introducing himself as kusaga Yuki he reminded her to visit the doctor later and

said goodbye before closing the door afterward kochan exclaimed that the food was super yummy and pointed out that Yuki Kun had drawn a star on it she added that when she asked Yuki K Kun to make an amarice he had actually made it to tuo simply responded that it was nice but then she began to cry apologizing to Cotto for the trouble she had caused the next day while preparing a gift for her neighbor Tuco thought to herself that even trash deserves common courtesy when she rang the doorbell of his apartment Yuki immediately came out

surprised and happy to see her he asked if there was really a gift for him and if it was nice Yuki was delighted to receive the gift saying he got meat before walking away Tuco was taken aback by how quickly he took the gift and left Co kotto then called out loudly thanking Yuki for the omares he had made and for helping her mommy kusaga responded with a simple sure after that tuko closed the door suddenly Cotto looked shocked and her mother asked her what had happened and if she was okay Cotto started to feel

better but then they both Heard a Voice coming from Yuki's room threatening to kill him they were both stunned by what they heard the scene shifted when Cotto saw a movie ticket she was wondering about the new 99 movie the ticket was priced 700 Cotto remembered that her mother had mentioned things that cost money were not allowed when then mother spent money on a ticket Tuco asked Cotto if it was okay she told Cotto that it was a special occasion and that she could watch it Tuco mentioned she would go have a chat with the

neighbor and told Cotto to go ahead and watch without her Cotto responded that she would stay there watching Tuco was unable to decide what to do and felt she had no choice when Tuco stepped out of her apartment she heard a strange sound coming from the neighboring apartment she thought that she would call the police as soon as it seemed necessary and there was probably something serious happening and I didn't like the idea of a violent crime occurring next door she wondered if everything was okay she was surprised when she opened the door slightly and

saw women's belongings scattered inside she saw a man shouting at Yuki Kun and grabbing him by the collar Yuki is surprised to see tuko in his apartment and asks her why she is there the man angrily accused Yuki kunun of having another woman calling him an [ __ ] Yuki Kun seemed to be thinking about something at that moment the man man then in a menacing tone accused Yuki Kon of flirting and laying hands on his girlfriend warning him not to mess with him the man threatened Yuki Kun saying he was going to kill him

Tuco thought to herself that she might have just made the situation worse the girl then shouted tatun to stop and the girl caught a leg with her boyfriend and admitted that it was her fault for being careless she suggested they leave it at 200,000 Tuco was wondering asking if it was 200,000 Tuco confronted the girl saying that she was the one who had been all over Yuki last week claiming she had said things like today was amazing as usual and had acted all lovey-dovey and they were all like smooch Tuco gives a warning if the

girl was just trying to hide the fact that she had been cheating the girl's boyfriend then asked confused what she was talking about regarding a Yuki kunun told them that he had met with her yesterday as well but he hadn't heard anything about a boyfriend Yuki said that she was very assertive and asked if he agreed Yuki took hold of the girl's hand and pulled her towards him and yukun remarked that it was pretty awful of the man to blame him and let him get beaten up like that adding that it hurt until Tuco pretends

to call the police and explained that she could hear yelling and the sound of someone being hit from her neighbor's boy's place she urgently requested they come quickly the girl had left him with a settlement agreement and notes saying sorry please forget about this Tuco asked Yuki K what he was getting himself into Yuki K con gargled and replied that having a witness had really saved him he then asked why she had been so docile earlier explaining that he had gotten in trouble with people who were seriously coming after him before Yuki explained that he

had been thinking it would speed things up he also commented that her act of calling the police was impressive he then shared that he had lent some money from an acquaintance but the person had run off with it leaving him with little savings he expressed that it was a tough situation and he wasn't sure what he would do if he lost what little he had left Tuco listened in silence and told him that he was just being used and asked Yuki Kon how he could be so easygoing about the situation and if he didn't hate

being betrayed Yuki Kun responded by asking why he would explaining that whether it was his looks or his money it just meant that people saw value in him Yuki said to herself that he wasn't sure if that was a good she wondered what was wrong with him Yuki kunun then came out of the cupboard with something to eat Tuco asked Yuki what he would do if he ran out of money Yuki took a breath and said that if he lost his money he would join a women's brothel or become a host after that he closed

the door and added that there were also some pretty good part-time jobs available Yuki mentioned that things like forging chicks could sell for tens of thousands and that something like delivering suspicious envelopes was easy enough then he laughed Tuco suggested that it might be best if Yuki let the police take him if he was struggling she asked why he didn't just admit he was having a hard time Yuki was confused and Tuco explained that she didn't understand how he had reached this point that he seemed to be engaging in self-destructive behavior and forc ing himself

to laugh it off she added that there was nothing worse than seeing the face of a child who had given up on life Tuka warned Yuki that if he followed through with the things he had mentioned it would become a problem for her as well she asked if he was not really that kind of person Yuki responded acknowledging that she would indeed be in trouble if he got himself into those situations then saved me he then added that he was just some trash who had given up. Yuki confessed that he had wanted to see how

long he could continue living the way he had been however now he was starting to get interested in doing the opposite he wondered if it was possible for him to become a decent person he asked if someone like Tuco who could casually walk into a situation and lecture others would be willing to pull him back from the edge when Yuki held her hand and pleaded asking her to save him and reminding her that she didn't want Coto Chan to be sad Tuco shuddered and became blushed telling him to let go of her thinking that he

was crazy there was a brief silence before she thought to herself that she should have run away immediately but for some reason she decided she could help him dot for the first time other than kotoch Chan Yuki hugged Toko and thanked her saying that he couldn't leave the kid alone Tuco feeling angry told him not to hug women freely and slapped him adding that he had already taught her something she then thought about the situation wondering what exactly Yuki needed saving from when kotoch Chan arrived she saw a lot of food and thought that there

was nothing in it for her though Yuki seemed very happy all three sat down to eat Yuki mentioned that the meal included eggs and beef offering some to Tuco saying it was delicious and a thank you for helping him out Tuco surprised pointed out that the meat used was the one she had gifted him and asked if he had followed a recipe Yuki responded that he hadn't relying on intuition and then asked if Tuco was bad at cooking. tuo remarked that first of all she didn't even know what Yuki was expecting her to help him

with and mentioned that she was a busy person so the situation seemed a bit too one-sided Yuki responded agreeing that it wouldn't be good if he were the only one benefiting Yuki informed her that the wall was shared with his living room and told her that if she was ever in trouble she could let him know by knocking on the wall and he would come to help he added that he was willing to do anything from random errands to cooking she remained silent thinking to herself that although she hated the fact that he was irresponsible

it was comforting to not feel extra considerate about it Tuco thought that the more she got involved with Yuki the worse the influence would be on Coto Chan meanwhile kotoch Chan was eating happily while the two of them were talking Cotto asked that Yuki would keep coming over expressing that he wanted to eat dinner together again Tuco warned Yuki that she would never forgive him if he made kotoch Chan cry Yuki agreed and while they were eating Yuki jokingly mentioned that he was thinking of asking for her help with a few things in return for

helping her whenever she knocked on the wall Tuco responded that she would never knock the scene shifted as Yuki told kotoch Chan that if she was ever in trouble she should let him know by knocking against the wall in his mind he thought that he would never do that as he had already decided to raise kotoch Chan on his own the next day while Cotto's mother was sleeping Yuki quietly opened the door and entered her room though she sensed the door opening she remained in a deep sleep Yuki kissed her forehead then told Tuco to

wake up she took a breath and slowly opened her eyes seeing a pretty face in front of her Cotto was happy that her mother had really woken up Tuco imagined Yuki as a prince after all the scene shifts to the morning with Bird's chirping when she woke up she was shocked to see Yuki and accused him of being a pervert asking what he was doing in their bedroom Tuco shocked asked Yuki if he had touched her Yuki replied that he had only come over because he was called Cotto said that her mom wouldn't wake up

and that she needed help Cotto explained that her mother wouldn't wake up even though it was morning and she thought her mother might be sick like before Cotto also told her mother that she thought Yuki kunun might be able to wake her up Cotto's mother told her that it was 5: in the morning then asked Yuki why he was even awake so early Yuki replied that it was because he drank until morning on Saturdays Tuco apologized to Yuki expressing her regret for bothering him so early and for the trouble her daughter had caused after Yuki

con left Tuco warned kotoch Chan not to ask Yuki Kun to come over unless she was truly in need of help Cotto replied that Yuki Kun had come to help Cotto then began to cry and Tuco thought to herself wondering why Yuki Kun had to say that while eating Tuco thought to herself that she had burned the stew again she told Cotto Chan to mix in the carrots and eat them seeing the soup Cotto ran to Yuki K's wall and knocked shouting for help saying that her mommy was forcing her to eat vegetables when Yuki

came for his help Tuco replied asking if he had come over again Yuki joked that it was really bitter Cotto then apologized to her Mummy saying she had asked for help because she was really in trouble as Yuki was leaving he thanked her after Yuki left Cotto's mother warned her not to knock on the wall and anymore saying only she was allowed to from now on she reminded Cotto how she had been saying they shouldn't rely on a m dot however suddenly she noticed a cockroach and moved towards Yuki's wall and knocked asking Yuki k

for help and apologizing for being full of herself this was the only thing Cotto's mother couldn't handle Yuki came over and catched the croach saying that these guys made it in there too he mentioned he would let it out once he was outside Tuco thanked Yuki for his help that day and as Yuki moved back he suggested that if they wanted they could stay for some tea the next day Yuki came to her house and slept on the sofa with Cotto commenting that the rice crackers were yummy and the sofa was cozy Tuco got angry

at Yuki asking if he had any more of the crackers she thought to herself that he was a Bonafide freeloader and that she was stupid for trying to be considerate towards him she then apologized and told Yuki that it was about time he left Yuki agreed saying okay Tuco was surprised and remarked that it was unbelievable this was the first time kotoch Chan had fallen asleep with someone other than her Yuki kunun told her to take it easy and said he would head out now mentioning that an old friend had just called for him the

scene shifted when Cotto Chan knocked on Yuki kon's wall but there was no response from Yuki kon's side seeing this Cotto's mother became worried and Tuco also seemed concerned Cotto said that Yuki Kun was not responding and she told her mother that Yuki Kun had tricked her her mother replied that it had already been 6 days Tuco then thought that an old friend of hers had just called she told C Chan not to tell her that Yuki Kon was in trouble again Tuco told Coto Chan that they should go but Cotto refused however tuo still

took her to a party where her boss and colleagues were present as soon as they arrived her boss announced that they were going to a party to celebrate and greet tuo Tuco was told by the boss that he was glad she was able to make it Tuco bowed and thanked him for his consideration the boss then mentioned that he had snacks for Coto Chan and said it was fine asking her to take it easy and not be formal as everyone had been looking forward to the event everyone exclaimed how cute Coto Chan was they asked

if she wanted some chips and offered them to her they also inquired if her outfit was a panda costume they complimented kotoch Chan saying she was so fashionable as they chatted Coto Chan seemed to be quite popular and they remarked on how beautiful both mother and daughter were her boss placed a hand on her shoulder and asked if they all liked kids while at the party drinking with people Tuco thought to herself that it was tough when people half assess their work because of kids she also recalled something awful in thought none of them had

said to stop it there's no point in thinking about this just take it easy kotoch Chan feeling distressed from the harsh Karachi son went to her mother clung to her and said that she wanted to go home after which she started crying she picked up her child in her arms and comforted her the people at the party were talking among themselves speculating that Cotto must be tired and there was nothing that could be done about it one of the guests remarked that they had been very kind to Cotto but her mother was deeply worried after

seeing her daughter in such distress Cotto kept insisting that she wanted to go home and her mother thought about how frightening and unfamiliar everyone at the party must have seemed to her finally she decided it was time to leave approaching her boss Tuco apologized saying they would be going now as they left Tuco regretted bringing Cotto there in the first place Cotto kept asking her mother to pick her up and Tuco thought about how shy her daughter usually was realizing that Cotto Chan had sensed more than she let on just then Yuki Kun met them

on their way out and asked Cotto Chan if she wanted to ride on his shoulders Cotto and her mother were surprised to see him but Yuki lifted kotoch Chan onto his shoulders commenting that she was pretty light and asking if this was her first time riding on someone's shoulders as they strolled down the street chatting Tuco asked Yuki where he'd been for the past 6 days Yuki explained that he'd gone to a flower viewing party then went out for drinks and later met up with some old friends and club members who kept calling him out

just as they walked walked a man approached Tuco and flirtatiously offered her a candied apple two people excitedly asked kotoch Chan to make a toast calling her Senpai everyone raised their glasses toasting the adorable princess suddenly Tuco felt uneasy and told everyone to stop saying they were scaring Cotto Chan and that they would be going home Tuco explained to Yuki Kun that Cotto had been uncomfortable around the adults especially men Yuki then asked if that meant he was an exception when Tuco looked confused Yuki told kotoch Chan it meant that they liked each other Cotto's

eyes lit up and she happily told Yuki kunun she liked him too Yuki smiled telling her he felt the same and praised her for her good judgment and encouragement the three of them then raised their glasses and celebrated joyfully after some time Tuco told Yuki Kun he should head back to his own place since he'd been away for a while the next day however Yuki kunun knocked on her door and let himself in leaving Tuco wondering why he was there she mentioned that he could pay her back for the transit cost later but was caught

off guard when she noticed he was drenched Yuki con leaned and quietly asked if he could stay the night worried she asks if he's lost his keys Yuki responds vaguely saying it's something like that Tuco suggests he contact his landlord but Yuki admits it's complicated he hasn't been paying rent and things just sort of panned out that way inwardly Tuco thinks Yuki Kun is completely irresponsible and Shameless she asks if he wouldn't be better off relying on one of the girls he often hangs out with Yuki Kon replies that he's already been couch surfing with

friends for the past three nights and to be honest he just wants a comfortable place to rest she then closed the door on his face and tells kotoch Chan that a man like him is absolutely no good Coto Chan however recalls that her mother always says to help people in need she wonders why her mother won't help Yuki K especially since he often helps her mother when she's in trouble Tuco let him in after taking a s Yuki Kun emerges from the bathroom wrapped in Steam he mentions that the bath warmed him up and asks

if she has any clothes he could borrow Tuco scowls and tells him his fashion sense is terrible Yuki laughs explaining that the outfit he wore wasn't even his it was something a younger friend had lent him Tuco exasperated asks if he dared to wear that in front of kotoch Chan Yuki realizing her Point insists that's why he asked if she had anything else he could wear rolling her eyes Tuco mutters to herself that chatting with University boys is absurd as she considers his request Tuco realizes it's just her and her daughter in the house so

why would they have any men's clothes she finally offers Yuki a set of clothes and he jokingly asks if they belong to her ex-husband Yuki Chuckles saying the situation gives him a strange feeling which prompts Tuco to ask why he's smiling she explains that the clothes were something she hadn't thrown away simply because they were new and he shouldn't read into it she shares that 4 years ago her husband had requested them for a lastminute business trip it had been her first shopping with kotoch Chan right after giving birth with with her whole body aching

and struggling through exhaustion despite her efforts the clothes ended up being the wrong size Yuki Kan laughed loudly saying it was awful Tuco explained that even though the shirt was only one size too big her husband couldn't wear it because it wouldn't look right on him she added that back then she couldn't afford to think too much about him or his needs Yuki Kun joked asking if the shirt looked better on him as she looked at him now she admitted that it really did suit him surprised by how stylish it looked Cotto Chan eagerly chimed

in saying Yuki Kon looked really cool Tuco smiled and told Yuki Kon he could keep the shirt she felt refreshed seeing him wear something that fit him so well Yuki feeling chilly settled onto the sofa to rest eventually drifting off to sleep Tuco muttered to herself as he dozed off kotoch Chan noticed and whispered excitedly wondering if Yuki Kun had truly fallen asleep she thought he looked warm and said she wanted to play with him Tuco opened her blanket that Yuki had pulled over himself while he slept she watched him quiet and remarked that he

even made faces in his sleep morning arrived with birds chirping outside and Tuco noted that neither Yuki nor Koto Chan had woken up yet she sighed acknowledging that there was no helping it she was thinking about reaching out to the landlord when she found a note by the door the note instructed that if she had any issues she could call a number or visit room 5002 to speak with the landlord as she read it she remembered once seeing Yuki with a girl outside room 5002 while passing by room 5001 she she wondered if that meant

the landlord was her neighbor approaching room 5002 she wondered if this might be Yuki's actual home when an unknown person opened the door she hesitantly asked if Yuki lived there the person responded that this was their home and with a frown warned her that Yuki was nothing but a fraudster and asked her were she also tricked by her hearing this Yuki who had just wake up muttered oh crap realizing he had been caught Tuco was taken aback shocked to learn that Yuki K was a fraudster she insisted that Yuki Kon had definitely lived there recalling

how he claimed he couldn't get into his own apartment the person listened silently before explaining that this was their home specifically the landlords and pointed to the placard for room 5002 Tuka wondered if the person was a makasu and asked if they were at least friends with Yuki K making a face as she spoke the unknown person shook their head clarifying that they were not friends with someone like Yuki kunun they admitted to letting him stay with them but complained that he never did any of the chores they asked of him instead he left trash

piling up and brought home girls who would often get into trouble with their boyfriends resulting in fights they sighed saying Yuki Kon was a huge hassle what they couldn't forgive was how whenever they were with Yuki Kon the girls they wanted to spend time with would suddenly start liking him instead and gravitate toward him the person grumbled that Yuki Kun stole all the girls they pursued suspecting this had been his goal all along they believed Yuki kunun was using their Goodwill to his Advantage the unknown person admitted that the the only reason they tolerated Yuki

Kun was that it made it easier to attract girls when he was around as Yuki Kun entered he apologized to Taun asking for permission to come in and promising he would clean up properly from now on he added that blaming him for getting rejected felt a bit unfair tauk Kun responded by telling Yuki Kun to shut up and refusing to let him and insisting that he actually liked the last girl he'd been with kotoch Chan then chimed in telling tauk she understood how he felt adding that it was tough when you liked someone who didn't

reciprocate those feelings Tuco surprised asked if both Yuki Kun and Taun were in the same year of college tauk Kun feeling a twinge of jealousy confirmed that they were both second-year students and shouted at Yuki Kun telling him not to talk over him and to get off his high horse calling him an ungrateful jerk he added that if Yuki Kun wasn't going to earn any money he should at least help with the chores Tuco intervened noticing people were starting to pay attention to them she asked them to stop saying it was enough Yuki kunun replied

to her that she had heard the verbal abuse and remarked that a man like that wouldn't get anywhere these days Tuco shot back telling Yuki Kun to stop acting like a married couple and to behave himself adding that they were bothering the neighbors and should go inside Cotto commented that it seemed like a lovers qural to which someone quipped that it indeed was a Lover's qural the scene then shifted to Meal Time where Yuki Kun asked tauk Kun also known as amakas suun if he liked sweet sweet tamagoyaki tauk Kun responded that it was underhanded

of Yuki Kun to use his favorite dish to win him over as Yuki Kun began to enjoy himself with Koto Taun and tuko started chatting Taun noted that cooking was the only thing yukun was good at to which Tuco replied that she agreed Taun then mentioned that his grandpa used to live there but now had another apartment and couldn't visit as often he asked if Tuco was the housewife who had gotten involved in the earlier mess surprised Tuco asked if tauk Kun knew about that he replied that he had heard it from Yuki who said

he couldn't fight back because a mother and her daughter were next door confused tuko inquired what exactly was going on watching their playful banter tauk Kun remarked that Yuki Kun seemed to have cheered up recently Tuco asked if that was really true tauk Kun laughed saying Yuki Kun used to look dead inside which was funny but still annoyed him now that she thought about it Tuco mentioned that kotoch Chan seemed to have cheered up lately as well ukun laughed again saying it didn't matter Yuki Kun still irritated him curious tuko asked why he felt that

way tauk Kun questioned if Tuco understood what he was saying the scene shifted when tauk Kun handed her the key stating that having someone watch out for him helped a lot he added that if Yuki Kon piled up trash again she should kick him out finally and hand his contact information the scene shifts to one day later while returning from the Metro Cotto his mother if they were going home Tuco mentioned that the library was closed there were many other people in the Metro who were overhearing their conversation just then Cotto remarked that he wanted

wanted Yuki then mentioned to the girl that there was little point in going to school anymore in response she urged him to stop thinking that way and suggested they hang out instead leaning into a playful flirtation just then he remembered the tie when Tuco scolded Yuki reminding him that if he was a student he should attend class and telling Yuki that if he was struggling he should speak up also the time when she told she never had the chance to attend herself later when the girl left the room Yuki sat in Sil staring at the

Yuki contemplated whether he somehow provided Cotto with those restful Vibes Tuco then turned to Yuki acknowledging the awkwardness of the situation she noted it felt strange to ask him to leave so soon Yuki simply replied I can hear you Tuco mentioned that she had recently stopped trying so hard to put Cotto to sleep and wondered if it was her fault that Cotto could only sleep with her she expressed her gratitude for the bond they shared Yuki gazed at her lovingly and suggested that since Cotto was asleep it was the perfect opportunity for some adult time

their conversation and Yuki asked what else she read as she flipped through the pages she noticed something and wondered if this was the guy Cotto said she resembled Ryuga along with the poage she had marked just then Yuki took the book and glanced at the posted on the page she had been focused on do you like that kind of look he joked Tuco startled and irritated told him to shut up Yuki playfully pointed out that she often claimed to hate men yet here she was Smitten by an actor who looked like that he tapped her

on the head and she insisted he was wrong Ryuga has more to him than just look she explained he's hardworking and a great actor it's impressive how he juggles work in college he's completely different from some No Good Guys Yuki grew serious leaning in closer do I resemble a man like him he asked teasingly pointing out that she seemed very conscious of him you know you're just like any other woman cute and all Tuco taken aback shot back that he shouldn't make fun of his elders and called him trash adding that he should never come

back again realizing he had gone too far he softened I'm sorry Yuki said genuinely apologetic
