Family routines and an unspoken question

In the Aoyama household, Tomoko and her sons Hiroki and Yuri settle into everyday routines while Dad is often away for work. As Hiroki starts high school, Tomoko wonders whether he has feelings for another boy. She chooses to give him room to work things out, even as his slips of the tongue make that difficult. The volume’s family-comedy premise brings together a mother’s attentive concern, a teenager’s private feelings, and the small moments of domestic life. Its LGBTQIA+-friendly framing places Hiroki’s possible attraction to a boy within the family’s daily world, with the focus on how Tomoko and her sons navigate what is—and is not—said.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in LGBTQIA+-friendly family stories.
  • Readers looking for a graphic novel centered on domestic routines and family relationships.
  • Readers interested in a parent’s perspective on a teenager’s emerging romantic feelings.

Book overview

A doting mother and her two beloved sons, one of whom she thinks is probably gay, go about their daily lives in this hilarious and heartwarming LGBTQIA+-friendly family comedy!

Despite belonging to a family of four, the Aoyama residence is typically home to three, with Dad away for work. Mom Tomoko and her two darling sons, Hiroki and Yuri, go about their everyday lives with little to disturb their gentle routines.

But as Hiroki begins his first year of high school, Tomoko can't help but wonder if her eldest has fallen for another boy. Though Tomoko is content to cheer on her son from the sidelines and let him work things out for himself, Hiroki's slips of the tongue are hard to ignore! With little talent for keeping his "secret," Hiroki might just die of embarrassment before all is said and done!
