But he's in for a surprise when they run into each other in Toyko and start a casual relationship he's afraid of letting become serious. Slow burn on the relationship build front. This was really satisfying and sweet.

I just gained ten years on my life after reading this. After he's dumped in the street, a man sits on a bench to cry and is startled when a pair of underwear falls on him from the apartment above. It belongs to an older man, recently divorced, who effortlessly inserts himself into his life. Gentle, sweet, hopeful, mature, no pain. This is a lovely story.

I AM CLEANSED! Naohito, single and pushing 40, is forced to attend a mixer where he meets Tohru, who is friendly, young, and speaks his mind - sometimes a little too much for Naohito, whose obsession with maintaining a perfect public image has cost him all but one relationship. When Tohru suggests being friends, Naohito sidesteps it, assuming they'll never meet again. But Tohru turns out to be an employee of an important client, so when his apartment burns down and he begs for a place to stay, Naohito reluctantly takes him in. This is about being honest with people you're close to and opening yourself up to new possibilities.

Amaike has been hiding his fetish for tears since childhood and keeps a distance from people because of it. When he finds Miharu crying, he's turned on and takes him home. Beyond his limits, he licks his face, but rather than be turned off, Miharu is reminded of his family's dog and they sleep together. Their friends-with-benefits relationship is easy and comfortable, but just as Amaike is starting to feel something deeper for Miharu, he stops receiving messages from him. This was sweet and about self acceptance, and finding a person who will accept you as you are.

Two businessmen fall in love over food in this gentle romance.
