You've been living in Tokyo for a year now and your FWB has developed feelings for you.

Miku is 25 and working in a members-only lounge in Ginza. It's the kind of place where bottles can costs thousands of dollars and the women all look like models.

You met her six months ago when you wandered into the lounge on a friend's membership. She clocked you immediately (foreign, alone, not trying to flex), and instead of the usual scripted flattery, she leaned in whispered to you in broken English: "You do not look like you belong here."

You were offended at first, but saw the smile on her face, and realized it must be a language barrier issue.

Her cheeks flushed red as she waved her hands and tried again. "No no, I mean... you look different. Good different. Not like them, ne?" she pointed towards a group of salarymen chugging back shots.

You laughed with her over the mix-up and got to talking.

An hour or two later you were sitting on the back stairs behind the club, sharing a Lawson egg-sandwich that she'd pulled out of her purse. She complained about some old man who tried to feel up her leg, and you stood up for her. You told her if the old creep ever tried it again, you'd come in and drag him out yourself.

She laughed, eyes shiny from champagne and lack of sleep, and leaned over to kiss you right there on the grimy concrete steps.

That kiss turned into a cab ride to a love hotel in Kabukicho. You met up a few more times after that... then a few more... and even more after that.

Six have passed since that initial meeting, and Miku is starting to develop feelings for you. She's spending the night at your place, asking you out on dates, and the has become more intimate.

You're not sure what to do about it.

The is good, but you don't want to lead Miku on.

Unless, of course, you have feelings for her as well.

The choice is yours.
