Sleeps In Sunbeams's manga / #cafe/restaurant(2)

A sweet, feel good style story. Irie-san has sworn off straight guys and meets the very touchy-feely Kousuke-kun at a nearby cafe. The two strike up a friendship and Irie becomes increasingly aware of his new friends awkward attempts at flirting. Did I mention awkward? Because that is the least of the uncomfortable feelings when Irie-san makes a move on Kousuke, only to find out that the guy he was falling for wasn’t flirting with him. He wasn’t even gay. He was simply cursed with being very klutzy. So the rest of this story follows what happens when a vulnerable gay man and a klutzy straight guy negotiate a relationship. Will it be friends? Or are they perfect for each other as lovers?

Truly fantastic story! This was a beautifully written story with great artwork that really made the most of the 2 MCs. The seme was an optimistic and cheerful host who loved his job but the constant heavy drinking was taking a toll on his body. In contrast, the uke was an introverted tsundere who owned and ran a late night diner. His main customers were the hosts from the club who came for the great food and didnt mind the serious natured owner. The rest of the story revolved around dealing with some pressing personal issues for each MC and falling in love with a good man. I think that’s what I loved the most in this story. These guys, especially the seme, were really darned sweet and likeable.
