Because You're Shy at Night

Because You're Shy at Night

夜のきみは不器用だから

Because You're Shy at Night is a collection of short stories about love and the quiet moments of resistance and relief that come with it. In one story, Sonoyama, who has dedicated his life to caring for his younger brothers after their parents' death, is surprised when his boss offers him a chance to let go of his burden. In another, Tsuji, a former office worker who now manages his grandfather's dormitory, finds his peaceful days disrupted by the persistent advances of the young Minami.

Other tales follow Wakamiya, a student repeating a grade, who finds it impossible to study with his helpful kohai without ending up in his bed, and Nao, a salon sweeper, whose colleague Narikawa distracts him from his goal of becoming a stylist. The collection also explores the relationship between childhood friends Hananoi and Tokiwa, whose dynamic is called into question when their friends suggest they are like lovers. Each story captures the awkward, tender, and sometimes overwhelming moments of falling for someone.
