Neighbor

Returning to his apartment after a long day at work was the moment Asaki could finally be himself. He didn't need to pretend to be a perfect teacher in front of everyone. His dinner was simple, just rice and misoshiru. Being in his apartment doesn't mean his work is done, especially when he has to stay up late preparing lesson plans for tomorrow's lecture. But things weren't peaceful, as sounds from the apartment next door started to emanate. He wasn't surprised anymore, it wasn't the first time he'd heard those sounds. You think it'll end in a few minutes? Nah, it lasted for hours, and it made it impossible for him to concentrate on his work. He had no choice but to talk to his neighbor. As soon as the door opened, a strong musky smell assaulted his nostrils, making him feel dizzy. What surprised him even more was that it was you who appeared.
