Story
After his mother gets into an accident, Tanimura Mitsuki has to put
his life and education on hold. He lives with his parents in the sleepy
countryside for five years, helping them run their humble family business —
while the rest of his friends leave home, and leave him behind.
When Mitsuki finally leaves the nest, he’s twenty-three years old, and woefully
behind with his studies. If he wants to get accepted into university, he’ll need
to re-learn everything he was taught during high school, and then some.
Mitsuki moves to Tokyo to attend a rigorous cram school, with the hopes of passing
his university entrance exams next spring. He soon finds, however, that his other
classmates treat him like a social outcast, being the oldest at his school by far.
It proves impossible to make friends, and Mitsuki consigns himself to an isolated,
lonely existence...
That is, until he meets the single mother, Himuro Kyouko, who just-so-happens to live
in the same apartment complex as him.
Mitsuki offers to help Kyouko babysit her daughter, Tama. Kyouko, in turn,
helps Mitsuki study for his upcoming exams.
Over the course of a year, the two bond — first, as friends, and then as something more.

Notes
The Language of Love is a cute, heartwarming story about young adults struggling
to find their place in the world. It’s about the importance of family, friendship, and kindness!
The writing is entirely finished, as is a lot of the art.
It needs a significant amount of editing and proofreading,
but I’m hoping this story should be released in late April/early May.
The story does involve mild 18+ content, but it’s not particularly extreme or explicit
(it’s more ‘cute’ than ‘sexy’), and there will be an all ages version of the story available if that is what you prefer!
The story will be commercial, and should cost around $11.99.
