For two years Jun and Reina have had an agreeable
arrangement: when it’s convenient, they’ll meet up and have a
good time together. “Good time,” however, has changed over the past few months.
Beaten with stress from her job and the dilemmas of her primary relationship,
Jun has decided she wants Reina to be more than someone she meets for hours of
passion between the sheets. To be more than a “nigou,” or the dirty mistress on the side.
Emotional commitment isn’t exactly something Reina can
subscribe to. She’s used up her intimacy tokens with her wife Aiko, and now the
idea of bringing another serious woman into her love life isn’t exactly her
idea of fun! Not to mention Jun’s younger girlfriend Saya, who is less than
keen on the idea of multiple partners, but willing to make it work.
As they tiptoe on the edge of polyamory, both Reina and Jun
have to decide what they want from each other – and from their primary
partners. What they discover is the give
and take that can happen beyond the scope of a casual relationship. How two
women can find the therapy missing from their lives in the arms of a nigou.
