It's evening.

When Kato Yusuke was writing furiously and struggling with the manga manuscript——

——Boom!

He was suddenly interrupted by a huge noise coming from outside the door.

Because the sound came from next door, considering the owner of that room, he went out to check it out.

——Then I saw an adult man wearing a suit and smelling of alcohol.

"Mr. Yoshida?"

When he asked this question, the client who was leaning against the next door with his forehead squinted his drunken eyes and squinted over.

"...What, it's you, hiccup~"

Sure enough, it was Yoshida, and he seemed to be a drunken version of Yoshida with a sloppy pace.

"What's wrong with you?"

Kato Yusuke walked up directly and held the other person's arm to prevent him from falling accidentally.

A strong smell of alcohol and an unpleasant smell immediately hit my face.

This also proves that the other party did drink, and it seemed that he drank a lot and even vomited several times.

In the face of his inquiry, Yoshida muttered without knowing what he was talking about, and all that came out of his mouth were some incomprehensible syllables.

Even though Yusuke tried hard to listen, he only heard words like "Goto", "date", and "Hashimoto".

Since it was okay to stay outside all the time, he took the key that Yoshida held in his hand, opened the door and took the neighbor back to the room.

The two of them took off their shoes and came to the living room together.

Although Yoshida is an adult man with a height of 180 centimeters.

However, for Yusuke, the difficulty of carrying the staggering opponent back to the room is not much more difficult than picking up Xiao Hei.

So there is nothing to say about this.

After helping Yoshida sit down by the bed, Kato Yusuke found a bucket of mineral water from the refrigerator filled with beer and poured a glass for his neighbor.

"Drink some water, Mr. Yoshida."

"Well…………?"

Yoshida opened his eyes drowsily, and was dazzled by the lights in the room again. He couldn't help but raise a hand in front of his eyebrows, and looked at Yusuke for a long time.

"Kato...?"

He murmured in confusion, subconsciously took the water glass, and drank it with Yusuke's help, finishing the entire glass of water.

Perhaps it was the stimulation of the ice-cold mineral water that made him wake up a little and instinctively looked at his surroundings.

"here it is……?"

"your home."

"That's it...thank you."

"So, what happened?"

"What……?"

"Mr. Yoshida, are you dating Ms. Goto?"

"--Aha!?"

As if he had been stabbed in a painful spot, Yoshida, who was still drunk just now, opened his eyes wide and cried out.

Kato Yusuke confirmed his suspicion, nodded and said: "I see, is it rejected?"

"Wait a minute, why are you..."

"You can tell this kind of thing just by looking at it. After all, you look like you are hopeless and depressed. Rather than that, do you want to talk about it?"

"Talk about...?"

"Yes, it's better to have someone to talk to at this time than to be alone, right?"...

"This is none of your business, Kato. This has nothing to do with you."

"Basically, you've told me so many things about Miss Goto, am I still considered irrelevant?"

"this--"

After hearing this, Yoshida instinctively wanted to open his mouth to refute, but in the next second he realized that this was the truth and couldn't help but droop his shoulders in frustration.

After a few seconds, he cursed angrily and said:

"Ah, I'm really convinced. You forced me to say this. Even if you feel bored later, I won't care!"

"Well, I have no problem. Mr. Yoshida, you have helped me a lot, so it should be like this."

As he spoke, Kato Yusuke poured him another glass of water and sat down next to him, "By the way, if you want to smoke, please feel free to do so. Don't mind me."

It was obvious that Yoshida was moved for a moment.

However, probably because he was still a student, he finally resisted the urge to smoke and just scratched the back of his neck irritably.

"...There's no need to smoke. So...what do you want to know?"

"Just say whatever you want."

"Is this so..."

Yoshida sighed heavily and said feebly: "...In short, just as you thought, I was dumped by Miss Goto."

Starting with this sentence, he began to talk one after another.

Actually, there's nothing special about it.

In short, Yoshida finally summoned up the courage today to propose a date invitation to Ms. Goto, whom he has had a crush on for five years, and the other party happily accepted the invitation.

The ecstatic Yoshida could be said to be full of energy for this, thinking that this great opportunity must not be wasted, so he carefully made many arrangements.

The two not only visited the zoo together, but also had dinner at a rather fashionable French restaurant.

The atmosphere during the date was also very good.

That Miss Goto also really enjoyed it, and she was definitely not just acting on the occasion.

As an old man who has worked for the same company and the other party for five years.

Although Yoshida is a bit emotionally slow, at least this can be seen.

It was precisely because of the other party's positive and cheerful attitude that he couldn't help but feel in his heart that "maybe there is something going on."

However, when he held on to this expectation and was ready to launch a further attack on the other party, he asked Miss Goto - "Do you want to come directly to my house?" This kind of invitation.

The other party laughed very nerve-wrackingly, and then gave him this answer——

"Although I never mention it in the company, I already have a boyfriend."

Phew, Kato Yusuke couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

"...Let's not talk about anything else for now, but isn't your sex too undisguised? Mr. Yoshida."

"It's so noisy! You must know that I am already 26 years old, and Miss Goto is two years older than me. The adult world is like this, and a brat like you won't understand it——!"

Yoshida frowned and said, his face turned red. He didn't know whether it was due to the effect of alcohol or inner shyness, or both...

"I'm sorry. Anyway, you can continue talking. What happens after that?"

"Hey...! After asking, I found out that she had a boyfriend five years ago. In other words, when I first met her, she already had a man."

"That's it...that would be GG."

"Damn it! I'm such an idiot... I actually fell in love with a famous and married woman for five years."

The stern-faced Yoshida raised his eyes, his expression slightly distorted with anger, and complained repeatedly.

"I was cheated...Give me back my love..."

"That's really a tragic story. No wonder you drank like this. I can feel your anger and sadness." Kato Yusuke nodded with understanding.

"Alas...I thought I had a chance."

"Now that I have a boyfriend, there's nothing I can do about it, let alone one that I've been dating for five years."

"Then why did she come on a date?"

"Well, this sentence is also full of resentment."

"Even if I say it ten thousand times..."

"Wouldn't it take more than 3 hours to talk?"

"What does it matter? I have warned you a long time ago. It was you who forced me to say it."

"Then there's no need to say the same thing ten thousand times, right?"

"Idiot, how can my anger be calmed down by this?"
