Can't look forward to the translation enough! From a lot of capture2text translations, here's what I think: they're both gay, but the german shepherd lives life for freedom while the bear conforms to a career and a loveless/sexless marriage.
The bear buys a prostitute for a drug going around. He suspects the german shepherd is a dealer, but the german shepherd has only had sex with people who used it (and it was one sided and unenjoyable). To say that he's innocent, the german shepherd ran away from a war torn country (which seems related to some of the awesome author's previous works) for freedom here and really has no home to go to if the bear wanted to search it out. Since the bear already bought him, the german shepherd does his thing and kisses the bear. Turns out the bear gets turned on, and the german shepherd says like "is the marriage just a front because you're a professional/have a career?" and sucks him off. Clearly enjoys it. The bear doesn't know how to put on a condom and the german shepherd is like "so you're a virgin, the marriage is sexless" and the bear is like "shut up!" They bang, and the german shepherd says "you're thrusting greedily like a virgin." They cum, the german shepherd loved it and would love it if the bear bought him again, but if someone could translate the meaning of page 28 for me (probably the page I'm most curious about), the bear is crying because he's never even hugged his wife (I think he's crying because he's been missing out for so long and the german shepherd calling him a virgin hit him hard). I think the prostitute guy says "sorry" because he's sorry to hear that the bear has lived so loveless and chained down.
They meet at the station again, and the bear drops off a looot of money and the german shepherd is like "are you buying me again?!" but the bear is really like "no, it's for you. As shackled as I've been, it's a tribute to you to keep finding your freedom (mega butchered). Also, the immigration services know you're illegal so get outta here." The prostitute goes off saying "heh, there's no way we'll meet again since our paths are parallel."
So the "parallel track" is that whole theme of being open and living life to the fullest while the opposite is being chained down and doing what's right, all wrapped up in a sexy artstyle. Curious to see if the cover and back pages advertisements have any relevant meaning, apart from prostitute letting it all hang out while the bear hides his junk.
