Tsubame’s Happiness by Arashi Arima*

Feed him, make sure he bathes, put him to sleep… 

Tsubame Takasu can barely budget happiness into his hard life. Parentless and almost penniless, Tsubame is a hustling college student until his older brother sells him off to the yakuza as collateral. But, instead of a life of crime he fears, Tsubame is assigned to take care of Sunazuka, a senior member of the Inadera Group who is terrible at basic self-care. 

Between cooking, cleaning, and attending to Sunazuka’s needs, Tsubame discovers happiness where he least expects it.
