Sequel to "I'm not your steppin stone", it is setting in the same world of construction workers (I wonder if that particular trousers they wear it's the standard "uniform" for construction workers...).Three story, the first two deeply linked and instead the third is a story of its own.
First: Kousei is a 27 yd old divorced father. He only has the chance to meet his son early on the morning, when he brings him at school, and late in the afternoon, when he takes the boy from school to home to his mother. On the way he always stops to a deli where he buys a single pre-cooked meal and Kenji, the store clerk, fancies this single dad and his cute son. More when Kenji discovers that his nephew goes to the same school of Kousei's son. And when Kenji has a light accident and Kousei brings him home, Kenji takes advantage of the chance to be alone with Kousei. It starts a funny relationship where the stocky and muscular Kousei treats Kenji almost like a girlfriend.
Second: Kousei asks Nakano to work with him to his new found construction firm. With Nakano and Kousei works Yasu, a reclusive and brooding guy, whispers say ex con and gay: Yasu is a childhood friend of Kousei and so Kousei is a bit protective of the guy and also seems to comprehend his problems. When Nakano finds that Yasu harbors romantic feelings for Kousei, and both of them think that Kousei will not be interested in a gay relationship, Nakano blackmails Yasu in a strange relationship, ones where, if they aren't having sex, they continuously argue and fight.
Yasu's character is my favourite in all the novel, even if I have some perplexity on what it was his past and his reasons. I think to have understood, but it's not clearly explained. In spite of this, for me it's the story worthy to buy the graphic novel.
Third: A high school boy is sexual harassed by a female teacher, and when one of his schoolmate sees them, he doesn't understand that the boy is forced to do it. So also him blackmails the boy, but when he understands that the boy is more innocent of what expected, he takes his defense in front of the teacher.
Interesting story but really too short to fully comprehend and enjoy all the plot.

Jeanne Barrack first attempt to M/M romance has a nostalgic taste. It's a mix of contemporary-historical-paranormal.
