1. arrghhh!!!! ego, insecurities and self-doubt ..the same old demons seem to be creating a rift between Natsume and Sahashi…but then this feels so real too…two people working at the same place, the senpai feeling overpowered, both professionally and personally, by the junior, and then the junior getting ahead in ways….. is sadly almost a sure-shot recipe for jealousy, misunderstanding, and rifts to creep in….

   It is so frustrating to see them hurting each other even though they have genuine feelings…they need to spend more personal time and hear and understand each pther better…Sahashi’s idea of moving together, even though at an early stage in their relationship, might actually help…because otherwise, the lack of together-time and honest, heart-to-heart conversations might just ruin this….:(

2. What surprises me is that Sahashi hasn’t even explicitly said “I like you” to Natsume and they’re already talking about moving in together. They’re going at an alarmingly fast pace, and that maybe adds to Natsume’s already existing anxiousness. They haven’t given each other the time to develop a trusting, loving relationship so misunderstanding/miscommunication is bound to happen.

5. This 4th episode is putting Natsume and Sahashi’s relationship to the test, going through trials and tribulations. I didn’t expect this but knew it would come. This kind of hurdle would strain their commitments to each other. There’s a reason Sahashi gets advanced to work at another branch at the same time Natsume gets promoted. Works would test their resilience working separately.

   As a result, Natsume is worn out by keeping up with multiple tasks and taking more responsibilities. He’s overworked to the point of getting sick. Natsume is happy for Sahashi’s advancement and is proud of his junior succeeding. Regardless of missing his companion, he envied Sahashi.

   Sahashi, on the other hand, worries for Natsume and wants them to live together so he could take better care of his overworked boyfriend. Thus, he’s been dropping hints and even started to talk about moving in together. First, he gave Natsume the key to his place asking him to come at any time, stay comfortably, and suggested staying overnight. Little did Sahashi know about Natsume’s inferior complex that would halt his desire to be close to his boyfriend.

   Idk what writers have in store for Natsume. Natsume does not even want to rely or take on Sahashi’s willingness to help. Couldn’t he see that Sahashi truthfully and openly maintained the dialogues going between them?

   Well, how could one respond to that and with the house key thrown back at him??? I think Sahashi got Natsume’s obvious answer about moving forward for them. Natsume still would not call him Toma. ☹️ Then at this point there’s no doubt why Sahashi would only address him as Senpai. Ouchy…😬

9. Natsume has so many fears and insecurities about what is happening with Sahashi and his work but Sahashi is clear about what he feels for him and he is proving that by giving him his key and home address and Natsume just he threw the key at poor at Sahashi and said those words to him

10. I really like this show. But I don’t understand one thing. They consider themselves a couple, Sahashi even wanted Natsume to live with him. But we haven not seen one kiss or a hint that they have gone further than that.
    I don’t necessarily need to see NC for that matter, but there are other ways to have that come across on screen.
    Or, besides the one kiss in the first episode, they only did eat and talk together and for the rest, nothing at all?

    Anyway, that deal is now off the table, cause Natsume talked in a way to Sahashi, that it seems that Natsume is jealous of Sahashi’s capabilities. And that hurted Sahashi.

    Also, and that is something that I see more in J BL, the amount of time that loved ones are able to not be together because of work, is apparantly normal. I for one could not handle that.
