Smoking Behind the Supermarket with You Chapter 52

Sasaki rushes through a stressful workday while wondering about his relationship with Tayama, hoping to finish early and meet her at the usual spot behind the supermarket. Meanwhile, Tayama waits nervously for him in the designated area, questioning her own motives and anticipation. Sasaki faces frustrating delays with canceled train services and encounters overzealous transit officers, which pushes his anxiety to the limit. After finally managing to arrive at the supermarket, Sasaki spots a tired Tayama dozing off on a crate and instinctively catches her as she nearly falls, leaving both flustered in the quiet night air.
