This couple has an age difference that causes them agony in their company. The third chapter

Love is for those over 30

I'll do you real good

2-1 Hmm

Today, the design group has all come on a trip together

Thanks to a travel company we work with
We were able to rent a great place with a hot spring

2-2 I haven't gone on many trips like this

Since I started working

2-3 Well...

2-4 Well
This time, you see...

2-5 Jeez!

I told him not to look at me!

3-1 To tell the truth...

Before this Yamada and I were supposed to come
Just the two of us, but

Sorry about before, Yamada
To make you switch days off with me

It's fine, Endo-senpai

3-2 I had to video tape my son's match

It's a pain to do it every single time

Good job!

3-3 Well, what are you gonna do?

Uehara-san!
Thank for today

All sort of things happened

3-4 Thanks for helping me on your day off

But really, didn't you have something planned that day?

3-5 Our matching days off

It's ok, Kinada

3-6 Work comes first

Got shot to hell

...so now

3-7 Ok, Yamada, once we put down our bags, it's the hot springs!

Uehara-san, let's go too!

I don't know when we'll be able to have matching days off again...

Women [curtain on left]

Men [curtain on right]

4-1 This is a pretty nice bath, hm?

4-2 Uehara-san! Uehara-san!
This water's colored!

It's mineral water.
Supposed to make your skin soft

Whoa
Uehara-san, you know everything!

Hey!?

4-3 It was written at the entrance

It's...
It's not like I was looking forward to it before the trip or anything

It's ok!
Since

4-4 Your skin is so soft, Uehara-san!

Hyaa!?

5-1 Hey!?

Oh! So silky!

I'm so jealous!

It's true, Uehara-san

Stop it, Kanada!

sfx: kya

5-2 What's your secret?

Secret... huh?

Yeah, tell us!

5-3 Just
Don't wear make up
Work like an idiot

Stay inside the company until you're middle aged... I guess

5-4 Ah!

That reminds me

What?

5-5 They have one more bath here...
It's an outdoors tub
You want to go try that too?
Huh? Huh?

5-6 Ah, Kanada, look

About the outdoors tub

5-7 No way, no way, Yamada.
The outside tub's too small. Only two can fit

You have to reserve it and wait your turn

Well, if I reserve it now...

6-1 Well, see...

I asked at the lobby, but
It's only available from 8 to 9 they said

She already checked...

Eh? Then...

6-2 We should grab that time

Yamada, you moron [The gesture he's making indicate drinking booze. Endo intends to get drunk with Yamada]

At that time, we'll be at the

6-3 Banquet

6-4 Ah, well, that's too bad

It has such a nice atmosphere in the pamphlet
I want to try it with my boyfriend

6-5 Hey, Kanada!

You've got someone you're that close toooo!?

It's a secret

sfx: kya kya

6-6 But truly...

It's got a great view

The two of us... huh

7-1 Outside tub

Looking at the scenery

7-2 In the hot water...

7-3 Sakura...

Just the two of us...

Yamada... and...

You're so pretty...

He pours for me
I pour for him

Feeling buzzed

...and then

7-4 and then...

7-5 Ehehe

8-1 We'll even if I want to...

Hey!!

This time, it's a company trip...

Uehara-san, you finished too?

8-2 Sakura... just out of the bath...

She's great with her hair up too!

Anyhow, I...

8-3 Y-you moron!

Don't stare!

and Yamada

8-4 Yamada!

Mahjong! Come with me!

Bucho's asking for you! [Bucho is the dept. head]
I'm jealous, you S.O.B.!

So the guys are going to hang out...

So the two of us...

9-1 C'mon!

Eh?

Eh!?

It's not like I expected anything

Really

I said really!

9-2 Listen up, Yamada

A guy who can't play mahjong can't make his way in the world
I'll teach you now
At a reduced price!

We can come here together another time, yeah...

9-3 Next time...

9-4 Next time...

9-5 Hmmmm...

9-7 2009! Good job everyone!

Cheers!!!

Yeaaaaah!

10-2 Ah, keep it together

sfx: glance

10-3 This is to celebrate

He gets to sit next to bucho

He's a W university grad [means Waseda U., a prestigious university]

He's doing fine

10-4 I get it, bucho!

This whole party is for that!

Oho! You said it!

11-1 He won't be able to leave that spot for a while

Well... I knew it'd be like this

11-2 It's not like I was expecting anything

11-3 Yamada doesn't mess up when it comes to work

Whoa!

You knocked that one back!

11-4 He gets into it, and is good with people
He'll move right up the totem pole

11-5 Man, this is great Yamada

You gotta hang out with us tonight!

Yeah, really different from me

Going out with me? Who is older? Well, his work will...

11-6 Let's go to a Soapland! Soap! [soapland is a place where men can get "washed" by naked women. A front for prostitution.]
Right, Yamada?

It's ok, it's ok!
It's on me!

sfx: spppttt

12-1 Oooohhh...

Soap?

Soap? You mean...

Come with us, Yamada!
It's a men's night out!

Men's night out SUCKS

Yeah, Yamada-kun
This is something separate from a girlfriend

12-2 Ah... Yamada's struggling with it?

Uh, n-no
I-I've never
I've never been, so...

He's struggling with it?

12-3 Yamada, you going? You asshole...

You going to go?
Ah, shit!

Ah

Um, Uehara-san

12-4 What?

U-um...

12-5 The outdoor tub

How about going in now?

13-1 I just reserved it in the lobby
From 8

Let's sneak out from the banquet and go in

...yeah

13-2 It's all about experience, Yamada-kun!

That's right, Yamada, and it's on bucho's tab!
Go be a man!

Yeah.
That's right
I'm going to fucking forget about Yamada!

sfx: ahahahaha

13-3 I-I-I wanted to try the outdoor tub

That's why I decide to come on this trip
That's right!

13-4 If we both go out, they might notice, so

You head out first, Uehara-san
I'll catch up

13-5 Got it

14-1 Wow

14-2 Yeah, this place does have a great view [italicize "does"]

Eheheh

14-3 Ahhhh

So nice

sfx: splish

15-1 But
Thinking how everyone's still at the banquet
Coming in secret is fun...
But it's also kind bad...

15-2 Not!

Since they are also going out for a "bath"...

15-3 Sigh

sfx: squeek squeek

15-4 Is that asshole
Really going to go...?

His demeanor
His going along with it

It's all for work...
I get it

That kind of "bath" is also part of a company trip, huh?

Not like a 30 year old high school grad like me...

It'll be important for Yamada's career

To suck up to his

Bosses...

16-1 Uh... um

Th-th-this is
My first time like this

That's great

You're a hot guy
I'll give you great service

sfx: suck suck

she's really doesn't know if that's how it goes [handwritten]

16-2 F-fuck off and die!
All guys can just fuck off and die!

Goddamn morons

Yamada, you asshole!

16-3 Crap...
I shouldn't have come
On this company trip...

16-4 Glomp

17-1 Ahn [handwritten]
C'mon, Kanada!

Eh? Eh?
Don't tell me
K-Kanada's like that...?

S-stop...

17-3 Um...

You said "fuck off and die"...
Are you mad?

18-1 Sakura! I'm sorry!
I let Bucho get carried away...

Eh?
No, I didn't mean...

18-2 Where's Kanada?

Ah, right!

18-3 Kanada-san and Endo-sempai
helped me escape

Mm? Endo, where's Yamada?

What are you talking about, bucho?
You made him drink too much!

Yamada-san is laid out in his room already!

And then Kanada-san told me you were waiting here...

18-4 The both of them say "sorry for making us work so much"

Eh!?
Eh!!

So that means Kanada at least knows about us...?

18-5 Hmph

A guy's night out is fine
So just go ahead, Yamada

19-1 Well, I had a little interest, but...

sfx: glare

Ah!
None! No interest at all!
Really! No, really!

19-2 Of course, hanging out with bucho

19-3 Is really important for my career,
but..

But, work...

19-4 If I don't have time with you
I... can't work

20-1 So serious

That's just like you Yamada!
Asshole

Well, I do like it, but...

sfx: hah hah hah

20-2 hah hah

20-3 Ju...
Just because you have flowery words

20-4 hah hah

20-5 What's with those hands!
You asshole, Yamada!

Y-you just wanna do it!

20-6 S-sorry...

21-1 Listen up, Endo
When I was young

PCs weren't the convenient things we have now
See!!

Ah, not this story again

Yamada! Hurry up and come back

21-2 Hey, have you seen Yamada-san?
I wanted to talk to him...

Hm?

Who knows?

21-4 Slip slip

21-5 Mm

sfx: shlurp

21-6 Ah!?

Nnn!

Nn

shlurp shlurp

22-1 It's...

Sigh

sfx: quiver quiver...

22-3 Sa...

22-4 Sakura!!

Ah!?
Hey!?

23-1 Geez!
No

Moving!

23-2 If you move, see
Water'll get inside, ok?

Th...!!
This is murder, Sakura!!

23-1 Heh

What?

What...? Sakura!

Hm?
...well

23-2 You're always acting so cool at work and stuff, Yamada

But no matter how long we've been together
Like this...

You're so hard up

23-3 I can't help it
Okay?

Sakura, your...

24-1 You body
F-feels so good

sfx; squeeze

24-2 Ahn!
Stop! Yamada, don't move!

But, Sakura! You...
You just squeezed me!

I-I didn't, you moron!

S...

No!
Today, we're just going to be like this!
