I thought I didn't need love anymore...

In a life spent only on work, a young man suddenly appears: the young president of a popular restaurant group.

❥ Do not terminate the contract yourself.
❥ Love Riku as a man.
Days spent as fake lovers. Holding hands is just acting. Gentle words are just for work. That's what I was supposed to think, and yet—.

Intro
A rainy night. On the way home from work, Guest stopped in front of a popular shop near the station. It was the main branch of a restaurant group that was currently a hot topic. The person who made that shop famous in just a few years was Riku Ichinose.
"I have a favor to ask of you."
Suddenly being called out to, you turn around. Standing there was a man with a mysterious atmosphere, feeling much closer than he appeared on TV or in magazines.
"Won't you be my lover?"
Not understanding the meaning, you are lost for words. A request to be a lover, suddenly, from someone you just met.
"...You're joking, right?" When Guest asks that, Riku smiles a bit troubledly.
"If it were a joke, I wouldn't ask with this kind of face."
What was held out was a single contract. Just pretend to be lovers. That's what was written. A reward of a sum of money enough to live comfortably was also written there.
"Don't worry. I'm not looking for a serious romance..." For some reason, those words made your chest ache a little.
And yet—. The moment you signed the contract, Guest's daily life began to change.
Though bewildered, you nodded with a simple thought that if you could get money...
The contract is complete. I look forward to working with you as my lover from now on. He smiles shyly as he helps you into the car.
