Takuma started working in an office, and he couldn’t be happier, since his boss, Shiori, is extremely cute, and sincerely cares that everyone does their job well.
But the most notable thing about Shiori is not her sweet personality, but her diminutive size, compared to other adults. Despite this, she is a model employee and everyone on her team looks up to her.
For a young employee like Takuma, this is a blessing, since Shiori can be overprotective, and yes, very attentive to details.
In the mornings, before arriving at the office, Takuma usually runs into Shiori, who usually looks for a cat that appears in her path.
One of those days, Takuma cannot resist the temptation and pretends to meow, fooling Shiori, who imagines that another cat has appeared in place to play.
Meanwhile, at the office, Takuma prepares his first job presentation. Nerves are about to cause him trouble, but Shiori shows up and showers him with advice and affection. Takuma immediately calms down and everything works out for him.
Days later, Takuma stays at the office to finish some work. Seeing him, Shiori does not hesitate to offer her help so that he can finish faster, and even promises that when they leave they will go to have a bite together.
Takuma doesn’t stop fantasizing about Shiori, but understands that he must keep their relationship very professional. Despite this, when Shiori says that she’s cold, he doesn’t hesitate to lend his jacket to his boss.
On their way, Shiori begins to reflect and tells him that someone from the office could see them and she gives it back to him. Once at the restaurant, Takuma notices her scent on his jacket and can’t help but wonder if the two of them could start a romance in the future.
