Shin'yuu Yamete Daite Ii? Ichizu na Osananajimi no Ookina ×× de Musaborarete

Tsubasa is an office worker who struggles with a deeply personal aversion to physical contact. Although she genuinely wishes to build closer relationships with her colleagues, even the simplest interactions—such as a casual handshake or standing near others in a group—leave her rigid with anxiety. The sole exception to this barrier is Louis, her childhood friend of mixed Japanese heritage who fully understands her condition. Now a highly successful and celebrated painter, Louis remains Tsubasa's closest confidant, and their bond is so strong that they frequently spend the night at each other's homes without hesitation. One evening, after falling asleep at Louis's apartment just as she has countless times before, Tsubasa suddenly awakens to an unexpected sight: she catches him intimately touching himself in the solitude of his room. This startling discovery shatters the familiar boundaries of their lifelong friendship, setting the stage for a tender and deeply romantic journey between a devoted man and the woman he has always treasured above all else.
