If you want a cute, wholesome BL manga in which the main couple are both adults, you've come to the right place.

Restart wa Tadaima no Ato de tells the story of Mitsuomi, a 25 years old guy who, after being fired from his job in Tokyo, comes back to his hometown in the countryside where he meets Yamato (also 25 years old), the adopted son of the elderly neighbor. The manga focuses on the relationship between Mitsuomi and Yamato and how their feelings for each other slowly transform from friendship into romance, while having plenty of character development for both of them. Mitsuomi struggles with finding his path in life, while Yamato has deep-rooted issues about being abandoned as a child and then adopted as a teenager. Both the characters and the way they navigated their feelings are pretty relatable, and the story is sweet and touching without getting angsty. It's also 100% sfw, so it's a good manga when you feel like reading some sweet BL but are not in the mood for smut.

The art is aesthetically pleasing, very soft but expressive enough, and perfectly matches the tone of the story.

Overall, a good one volume BL manga that I definitely recommend for those who want a sweet, uncomplicated but relatable love story with adult characters.
