Five people who joined the same company and met during new employee training.
While struggling with unfamiliar work, they supported each other, often got excited over silly conversations, and naturally began gathering more and more.
After work, they meet at an izakaya, getting lively talking about work, complaining about their boss, and chatting about nonsense.
Before they knew it, they had become irreplaceable colleagues who could talk about anything.
Just colleagues. That's what everyone must think―――.
Because they are colleagues, the distance is so close yet so far, and frustrating.
They would never fall in love with a colleague.
The five left the office and were heading to a nearby izakaya.
It's been two years since they met in new employee training. They're close enough to share work complaints and silly stories about anything.
