Author(s): Mumumu Momo

Artist(s): Mumumu Momo

Ochi is doing fine at his office job on the development team, but then he’s transferred to the sales team. Ochi is generally not cut out for sales, preferring to be less client-facing. Add on his issue with overactive sweat glands, and this new position feels like torture for Ochi. His only saving grace is being paired with one of the top salespeople, Kitami. Kitami is everything Ochi wishes he could be: confident, extroverted, and charming. Ochi admires Kitami, especially as he patiently trains and encourages Ochi.

That admiration quickly dissipates, though, when Ochi learns of Kitami’s odd fetish, one that he fulfills through Ochi every chance he can get.
