"—You still haven’t grown out of being bad at dealing with affection, huh." Kiriha, now in her fourth year as a working adult, is often seen as reliable at work. To her younger subordinate, she plays the role of someone who can always be depended on, never revealing her true feelings. She hides her stress behind secretly smoking. One day, someone from her past who knows all about her awkward and clumsy youth suddenly appears—her former senior who transferred from Kansai. She doesn’t want to show any weakness—especially not to him. And yet, he sees right through her and keeps getting under her skin… A bittersweet love story about a woman torn between pride and vulnerability! ♡
