Maybe I'm getting too stuffy about the logistics, but a 28 y/o police officer who's holding a position of power over a 19 y/o kiddo he's supposed to be watching makes for a very questionable premise; and a strange abuse of power. Add to that the match-making scene which was pretty unnecessary. Like, no one has to tell their partner everything, but since it's a new relationship feelings are bound to be more fragile and unstable, so Gou hiding the fact that he was invited to a mixer by a colleague from Akihito just seems to be asking for more 'drama'. He could've easily explained the situation to Akihito and reassured his much younger partner instead of calling him a spoilt child (although Akihito is still practically a kid) and then getting pissed over Akihito's reasonable insecurities. Idk, this just didn't do it for me.
