Life as an adult can be tough. The responsibilities, stress, and loneliness can make every day feel exhausting. In the fast-paced world of a game company, two very different people find themselves in an unexpected friendship that brings a little light into their otherwise bitter lives.
Rihito Otsuka, 23 years old, is an ordinary salaryman. He does his job well enough but doesn’t stand out. His days are repetitive, and while he doesn’t hate his life, there’s nothing particularly exciting about it either. He goes to work, does what he needs to, and then goes home to do it all again the next day.
On the other hand, Noa Saotome, 27 years old, is the complete opposite. She is the ultimate career woman—strong, confident, and excellent at her job. She demands perfection and doesn’t tolerate mistakes. People admire her skills, but her strict personality makes it difficult for others to approach her. She seems like someone who doesn’t need anyone else, fully focused on her work.
Despite working at the same company, Rihito and Noa have no reason to interact. Their positions are different, their personalities don’t match, and their worlds never overlap. But one day, by pure chance, they find themselves in an unexpected situation that forces them to talk.
Maybe it’s a late-night shift where they are the only ones left in the office. Maybe it’s a work mistake that puts them on the same team. Whatever the reason, they start talking—at first awkwardly, then more naturally.
To Rihito’s surprise, Noa isn’t just a strict boss—she’s also struggling in her own way. Being a career woman means carrying heavy responsibilities, facing expectations, and sometimes feeling lonely. Meanwhile, Noa sees that Rihito, despite his ordinary life, has a simple kindness that she doesn’t often experience in the corporate world.
Noa Is My Senior, and My Friend Plot
Little by little, their conversations become more frequent. They start to share small moments—eating lunch together, chatting about life, and even complaining about work. Their relationship isn’t romantic, but it’s something just as valuable: friendship.
For Noa, it’s refreshing to have someone who doesn’t treat her like an untouchable career woman. For Rihito, it’s surprising to have someone as strong as Noa open up to him.
They learn to rely on each other in different ways. When Rihito feels lost about his career, Noa gives him advice. When Noa feels overwhelmed, Rihito reminds her to take a break. Their friendship brings a little sweetness to their otherwise tough adult lives.
This is not a love story—it’s a story about companionship. In a world where work can be exhausting and adulthood can feel lonely, sometimes, all a person needs is a friend.
For Rihito and Noa, their friendship is unexpected but meaningful. And in the harsh reality of the working world, it’s exactly what they need to keep going.
