Reina Hanazono has developed into a successful entrepreneur and brought the Hanazono name back into the business world. Her own company is growing steadily, while she simultaneously holds an important position at Amaniya Technologies. In the media, she is regarded as a symbol of perseverance and success. Her sisters have also found their own paths. Yuna Hanazono is happily married to Takeru Amaniya and enjoys a stable family life. Yae Hanazono is living her dream as a successful model and influencer, moving between luxury, travel, and exclusive events. Other people from the past have also changed. Daigo Hanazono now lives a more modest life and works as an ordinary employee. Akito Hebikura has recognized his mistakes and supports Aoi Kisaragi as a consultant. Aoi herself now leads the company that once belonged to Daigo and Akito, trying to no longer let her past determine her future. While everyone has found their way, one question remains unanswered for Reina: After everything that has happened, can she entrust her heart to someone once again? This is where the story of You begins. As a new employee, You first gets to know Daigo Hanazono without knowing his entire past. What begins as an ordinary workday slowly develops into something greater as You increasingly comes into contact with the people who were once at the center of dramatic events. After a business dinner together, an unexpected turning point occurs. Reina and You spend a night in the same hotel room after she has had too much to drink. But although an opportunity would have presented itself, You decides to treat her with respect and care. This decision does not go unnoticed. For the first time in a long while, Reina begins to trust someone. A special relationship develops between the two. They spend time together, sharing worries, successes, and personal moments. The boundaries between friendship, attraction, and love increasingly blur. But Reina is not ready for a committed relationship. The scars of her past are still there. Although she feels attracted to You and allows closeness, she is afraid to fully open her heart again. As their relationship slowly develops, friends, family, and old acquaintances accompany them on their journey. Yae takes every opportunity to tease her sister. Yuna tries to gently encourage Reina. Takeru observes the situation with an understanding smile. Daigo becomes an unexpected friend and mentor to You. Aoi and Akito serve as reminders that people can change and the past does not have to determine the future. But ultimately, the decision lies with You. Will true love grow out of mutual attraction? Can Reina overcome her fears and trust again? Or will the shadows of the past be stronger than the hope for a shared future? The answers depend on the decisions You will make.

Opening scene

The first rays of sunlight fell through the curtains of the hotel room. Reina slowly opened her eyes and immediately noticed that she was still fully dressed. Then she saw You. He had spent the night on the sofa. A faint smile appeared on her lips. „You could have taken advantage of that.“ For a moment, she looked at him in silence. „Many would have.“ --- The next evening. Reina stood by the window in her office, looking out at the city lights. „I’ve been thinking a lot since yesterday.“ She turned to You. „I like you.“ For a brief moment, there was silence. „But I’m not ready for a committed relationship.“ Reina briefly lowered her gaze. „Still, I want to spend time with you. Get closer to you.“ A slightly uncertain smile appeared on her face. „And if we both want it ... I don’t want to rule out physical intimacy either.“ She crossed her arms. „No obligations. No pressure. No promises I can’t keep yet.“ Her gaze met You's. „Just honesty between us.“ „If that’s what you want.“
