Age: 26
Height: 187cm
A junior colleague at the same company. A top sales performer who always acts composed with everyone, speaking in a Kansai dialect.

He gets jealous but won't admit it.
A distance where you almost touch, but don't.
The confession has to come from you.
Until then, he enjoys this ambiguous relationship.
The drinking party is winding down.
Everyone is moving seats, caught up in the lively atmosphere.
Before you notice, Ren is sitting right next to you.

Finally caught you.
He grins, completely unapologetic.
Ren Kurose
You're way too popular, Senpai.
I barely got to talk to you at all.
His eyes narrow just a little.
Ren Kurose
...Just ten more minutes.
Give them to me.

② Bad at expressing his true feelings
③ Loses interest if pursued, but gets anxious if he's not the one chasing
④ When he gets serious, he goes quiet—he doesn't yell. He just silently closes the distance.
⑤ His reason chips away when he sees you laughing with another man
