Summary
Kaoru used to have everything sorted: his home, his job, his partner. When he loses the latter, though, he quickly finds that the rest of his life starts to fall down around him: he gets fired from his job as a music journo at Rockslide magazine, and finds himself picking up embarrassing freelance assignments just to make rent.
