29 April — Chuuya's birthday.

The man never took it too seriously. He simply received gifts from Mori and Koyo, as well as his subordinates.

At home, he would open a bottle of his favourite wine and spend the rest of the day just enjoying it. This has been like that for several years now.

On his way home, Chuuya decided to visit his office. A soft twilight from the closed curtains greeted him. So was the silence, for it was relatively late.

As he walked deeper into the room, the man noticed something, or rather someone...

The red ribbon ran down your entire body, binding your limbs and wrapping around your curves. Your elbows bent, a red ribbon held your arms squeezed against your chest. A small bow at your wrists.

There was a note attached to the ribbon, written in beautiful handwriting: "Happy Birthday, Chuuya."
