a beautiful young woman comes up to my door she seems pretty excited about her date with me today and she shows off that she even made a lunch box for the occasion I don't remember having a date with her though I quizzically asked who she is but she doesn't seem to understand the question she's obviously ree's girlfriend and she seems almost offended that I asked her such a strange thing she begins suspecting that I have another reason for not letting her inside my house perhaps I'm too timing on her with that girl at the office
she demands to know where this home wrecker is I get a word in and correct her explaining that I'm not Ray she apologizes profusely for the mix-up she had forgotten to put on her contacts in her rush to leave home a week has passed since I last spoke to that strange girl I noticed that a lot of noise seems to be coming from outside and I realized that my next door neighbor has moved out I never see his face just the movers carrying out various pieces of furniture I returned to the comfort of my home
but a few moments later the doorbell rings as I slowly open the door the girl from last week peaked sin she fidgets in place as she asks me if I still remember her I nod still fondly remembering that she's the girlfriend of the guy who just moved out she closes her eyes out of fatigue and reveals that she broke up with him the other day and I offer my sympathies she explains that the fool was having an affair or rather was too timing on her despite having such a beautiful and loving girlfriend Rey would often
bring other women into his home under the pretext of work or just being good friends I get slightly angry on her behalf and ask what kind of idiot would do such a thing to a kind young lady she shakes it off to lighten the mood and she explains that she's come here today to apologize for the inconvenience she caused me when she last visited she gingerly holds up a small paper bag with a cake she baked herself I reassure her that there's no problem I invite her inside and offer to brew her some tea she
must have had a rough day my Hospitality seemed surprising to her and her eyes light up at the offer she's practically beaming she happily accepts my invitation and she steps inside my apartment she looks forward to spending some time with me and she apologizes for the intrusion unfortunately I don't immediately notice the hollow look in her eyes as she shuts the door behind her I apologize for the mess since I wasn't exactly expecting company the girl pays it no mind and comments that my room is actually tidier than I let on I wonder if she's
just being polite I prepared to head to the kitchen to cut and serve the cake and I asked the girl if she'd be willing to wait for a cup of tea she looks up and explains that the cake is hardly big enough to cut into individual slices she asks the not worry about her share and that she'd be happy if I'd enjoy it myself she says my name hikudo but my mind finally clicks I've never told her my name I turned to the girl and ask her how she knows it the girl manages to make
an excuse that some of my mail ended up in her ex-boyfriend's mailbox before and she remembered my name because it seemed unusual this seems plausible enough and I don't think any more of it she apologizes for freaking me out for a second and she seems genuinely remorseful she realizes that she hasn't told me her name yet she introduces herself as you she she remarks that it seems like Fate has brought us two together and she hopes that the two of us will get along I have slightly mixed feelings about getting closer with you especially after
she just broke up with my neighbor there are plenty of red flags here but I'm colorblind again I fail to notice the color disappearing from her eyes I carefully open and take out the cake that you baked for me the arrangement of the small cake is delightful it even has strawberries my favorite she hopes it suits my palate and she anxiously watches me dig in I take out a fork and I notice her looking at me and I tell her that she's making me nervous I finally take a bite out of the Shortcake and find
it to be absolutely delicious you is incredibly relieved she explains that it's been a while since she made a cake and drugged it so she was worried that I'd noticed that it tasted different wait you drugged it my head becomes a hazy mess and my vision becomes blurry I should be panicking but I am strangely at peace I see a Sinister smile form on you's face everything goes dark and the last thing I I hear is you wishing me a good night's sleep I slowly reawaken and my head is aching I had no memory of
what just happened you was here one second and then the next I feel something soft and warm on my cheek I open my eyes and see you staring down at me her hand was apparently caressing me as I slept I asked how I ended up falling asleep and she explains that I must have been incredibly tired from work I take her explanation at face value but I realized that my head is on her lap I jump away out of embarrassment and basic decency as this isn't something I'd usually do with a girl I just met
you chuckled and reassures me that there's nothing to worry about since she greatly enjoyed watching my sleeping face I don't really know how to react to that I'm just nervous I can't believe I fell asleep on you's lap like that even if I've been working overtime lately I noticed that it is already well past six in the evening and you lets out a surprise guest she prepares to exit the door as she believes that she has already overstayed her welcome I apologize for not being a better host but she reassures me that it's a okay
she boldly asks me if it's okay for her to visit again and I see no issue with it I tell her that I'd be happy to have her again and she laughs she looks forward to seeing me again I go back into my room daydreaming about how cute you was however I do wonder why I ended up falling asleep I noticed that the dishes have already been washed and put away while the room looks even tidier than usual you must have fixed up the house while I was out of it I almost feel guilty about
it meanwhile you clutch is a key to a kudo's apartment you happily hangs out the clothes to dry since today is laundry day she ends up touching akudo's underwear and she nearly shies away out of embarrassment however even if it is embarrassing you encourages herself to do her best for ikudo's steak she is after all planning to become ikuto's ideal girlfriend I come home later that evening but I am weirded out that my laundry already seems to be out I quickly call my mother and ask her if she dropped by earlier but she denies it
the only other duplicate key to my apartment is at her house so so I make plans to visit home to retrieve it something seems odd but I can't quite pinpoint what it is yet meanwhile you with the sketch layer back on Happily listens to something on her phone it turns out that she is eavesdropping on a Kudo and she overhears him talking to his mother about his laundry being mysteriously done you laughs that akudo thought that his mother went all the way to kudo's apartment to do the laundry really how silly of him a few
days later he spies on a Kudo from afar as he heads off into the office she can barely contain her excitement at how good he looks in a suit she's practically trembling a few guys notice you and admiring her good looks and good figure they decide to try and chat her up they try hitting on you and they ask her she wants to have some fun with them but use eyes go dark losing any semblance of humanity indecency with a sharp tone she tells him that she's meeting up with the man she loves and she
currently asks them to go away better yet they should stop breathing one of the guys Whispers to the other this girl is bad news and that it is in their best interest to leave her alone the other guy finds it hilarious that he'd lose his nerve over something like this but the guy doesn't care they should leave now at exactly six in the evening I head out of the office after a rare early day at work I'm exhausted I suddenly bump into a girl scattering her groceries on the floor but it turns out to be
you what a lovely coincidence she seems pleasantly surprised to see me and she explains that she closed her store early to do a bit of shopping I'm still surprised to see her but more so to learn that she owns and operates a store while helping her pick up her groceries my hand ends up on top of her and I can almost audibly hear her heart beating you said she bought a little too many groceries today so she tries to invite me out however before she can finish her sentence she is interrupted by the cheerful Cry
of senpai coming from one of my subordinates I don't notice it but use mine nearly snaps his short-haired cheery girl comes running up to me and you I'd recognize her demeanor and signature Fang anyway where it's Adano my bright eye Junior inviting me out for drinks she finally notices you and asks who she is but before you can claim to be my girlfriend Adana does it for her she loudly asks if you is my girlfriend but I hastily say that she's mistaken I quickly explain the situation you is simply the ex of my former neighbor
and after a few complications the two of you ended up friends when adono gets the gist of the situation she is greatly relieved a remark that does not go unnoticed you stares daggers at this interloper Adano calls out to my other co-worker matsuda claiming that I can join them for a drink what the heck I haven't even said anything yet I'm also worried that you might feel a little out of place Adana drags met suit over who seems to be instantly Smitten by you he introduces himself as one of my colleagues and you politely nods
her head Adana waves goodbye to you and tries to drag me with her and matsuda but I remember that you was still talking to me and I try to ask her what she was talking about Matt suda upon hearing that I had prior plans almost lets me leave but for some reason he stays silent you puts on a brave face and lets me go with my co-workers reassuring me that she can visit me anytime she wants she happily promises to bake some cookies for me next time and I happily look forward to it a dawn
of snaps at matsuda to do the thing and he quickly slings his arm around me and leads me to our favorite local bar Adana says goodbye again to you and I also wave from afar you with a smile on her face also waves goodbye however once both are out of earshot Adano and you stare daggers into each other's backs there can only be one I take my seat with matsuda and Adano at our favorite bar and Booth it's a busy Friday night Adana talks about the traffic accident we all saw on the way over and
she expresses how afraid she was matsuda chines in and says that a car crashed into two young men and he worries for them a nod out of sympathy it's a terrible thing Adana says she's somewhat worried about going home alone after which witnessing an accident like that but my thoughts admittedly wander to you whom I know also had to walk home alone dinano glances at me and notices that I was thinking of something else she asked me what was on my mind and I admit that I was thinking of you and worried about her safety
I must have offended Adana somewhat because she becomes rather grumpy and points out that she's right here I stutter out an apology Matt suda jokes that he's also here but idana Stomps on his shoe with her heel Adana reassures me that you will be okay on her own elsewhere you has begun doing her homework and through her innate investigation skills she has Unearthed basically every detail about idano's life for example she is 24 years old her parents are alive and well most importantly she lives alone matsuda stands up and heads to the toilet leaving me
alone with a slightly Tipsy Adana she asks me if I no longer plan to drink I tell her I'm drunk enough but I express concern as to how she'll be able to make it back home alone a dawn of sits up and says she'll be fine but she shares that she's slightly worried about something I ask her what's on her mind and she suddenly reaches out to me with both her hands she asks if I'd be willing to go with her somewhere just the two of us I'm stunned by this sudden invitation and my hand
is shaking I don't know how to respond I jerk my hand back and apologize I point out that we both had a little too much to drink and whatever important thing she has on her mind might be better left for next week Adonis seems almost devastated by my answer when matsuda returns to the table we all head back to the entrance we walk a short distance toward an intersection where we all go our separate ways I entrusted Donna's safety to matsuda and he reassures me that she'll be safe and sound matsuda and Adano walk through
a relatively Empty Street matsuda says that adonov seemed rather cold this evening edana tells him to shut his useless mouth they stopped by a nearby store and matsuda excuses himself for a moment Adan suddenly receives a phone call from a number she does not recognize she says says hello to the seemingly empty line but she hears a familiar voice you asks edana when she enjoyed her little get-together with a Kudo adano's alarm Bells go ringing idana recognizes Yu's voice if not a bit caught off guard by the sudden call she asks her where she got
this number but you doesn't answer you apologizes for calling at such a late hour and she asks idano if she could do her just a Teensy little favor you recounts the little altercation she had with her ex-boyfriend and she acknowledges that she might have been a little at fault for failing to warn the girl he cheated on her with this time she won't make that mistake she asks idana to promise not to go near a Kudo from now on as she values her life edana nearly spits out her non-existent drink and lets out a hearty
laugh she wasn't sure what she meant by favor she settles down a bit and promises you that she and ikuto are simply co-workers a simple Junior and senior there's absolutely nothing to worry about you thanks her for being so cooperative and she'll take her word for it it however someone seems to be approaching Adano in the darkness matsuda finally returns after a few minutes with an armful of bottles he notices that Adam seems to be acting strangely and he asks her what's wrong Adana smiles and says that she changed her mind later as I prepared
to turn in for the night I worry that I might have rejected Adano a little too harshly but I can't exactly say that I thought of you when she invited me out alone tired and exhausted I prepared to head to bed but I hear someone ring the doorbell it rings twice more followed by two quick wraps I wonder who could possibly be visiting me this late at night I looked through the people and see matsuda trying to help up a clearly wasted Adano I hurriedly opened the door and asked matsuda what happened he explains that
the two of them went for another round of drinks but he left her for a few minutes and when he came back she was completely wasted he doesn't know where she lives so if he had little choice but to bring her here I placed my hand on my hip and rub my temples I let out a sigh I can't the dawn them like this so I let matsuda bring her inside until she sobers up he sits her down on the floor and carefully removes her shoes but he suddenly excuses himself claiming that he has to
be up early tomorrow he leaves me behind with a drunken idano I feel uncomfortable letting a female co-worker into my house at this hour but I have little Choice since she's in no state to go home like this I help Adano in my apartment and offer her some water in the meantime but I fail to notice the foxy grin forming on her face outside matsuda walks home with a worried and pained expression on his face he hopes that he did the right thing
