Chihiro Himukai Always Walks Away

Synopsis

Three years after joining the workforce, high off the success of a recent client engagement, my boss takes the team out for a night on the town. In the fervent night, that cliche teasing question comes up again. "Have you gotten rid of your virginity yet?"

"I can't believe you're being made fun of just for being a virgin. Doesn't it frustrate you?" A chance reunion with Himukai Chihiro. "Why don't you graduate from your virginity with me and go to work tomorrow as a new man?"

I haven't seen her in 3 years. And while we may have been close during highschool, it wasn't anything more than that. But as one thing led to another one, I ended up in her room.

That night was the first time I held a woman. Skin softer than I could imagine, and a sensual moaning voice that I never thought I would hear. Unexpectedly, I wasn't the only one who graduated that night; as the blood on the sheets would show.

As fast as it all happened, it ended even faster. With a standoffish, yet coquettish voice: "Just to be clear, don't act like you're my boyfriend just because I slept with you once. See you later."

A bitter-sweet reunion story of two adults who were too distant to be lovers, and yet too close to be called friends. This is a story of an ambiguous relationship that starts off in the wrong order but retraces its way back to true love.
