Smoking Behind the Supermarket with You Chapter 27

Sasaki happily finishes his final workday of the year and heads out to enjoy some guilt-free time off. Meanwhile, Yamada rests at home while recovering from a fever, though she stubbornly insists on returning to work despite Goto calling to check on her. Sasaki shares a smoke break behind the supermarket with Goto and calls Yamada to check in on her condition. During the phone call, Sasaki accidentally expresses his appreciation and affection for Yamada, turning red-faced when Goto points out that the conversation was on speakerphone.
