On his way home from work one day, Shiota, a hard-working businessman, stumbles upon a stranger who's about to pass out from hunger. Surprisingly, the man happens to be a co-worker from a previous part-time job, Suzuya! Unable to leave his acquaintance be, Shiota puts his years of cooking for himself to good use and whips up a few dishes to share. Although Suzuya leaves satisfied that night, he starts to make a habit of showing up at Shiota's place whenever he's in search of a good meal. Shiota should hate having to feed Suzuya whenever he shows up, but he's actually finding himself getting quite attached to this stray cat that has entered his life... This volume also contains the age-gap romance stories "Slate Blue" and "The Sky and Gray Blue"!
