Kurumi and Ruriko made a deal: if they were both single in five years, they would marry each other. Five years later, neither woman is attached, so it’s time for a wedding! Marriage is full of firsts, especially for two friends, so they have a lot to learn about each other in their newly shared home. But will they continue this arrangement like two especially close roommates… or will a different kind of love bloom between them?

BETWEEN FRIENDSHIP AND ROMANCEHinako wants to get closer to Asahi, but there is still a lot she needs to work out. What will happen when she turns to Fuuka in her time of need? And how will Fuuka handle her own feelings for Asahi?

But no matter how hard she tries, she's a self-doubting mess inside, and her attempts at 'normal' romance with men just keep failing. When she starts to think she might be alone forever, a new normal presents itself - in the form of her relationship with Asahi Sato, a level-headed woman who works at her company, which starts as respect until it becomes far more intimate.

After Ruriko’s hospitalisation, Ruriko and Kurumi’s connection seems to be deepening. But that doesn’t make them immune to the odd argument! Can they work through the knots that come with tying the knot?
