Being told he was beautiful, a word
that didn’t suit him at all, Tatsumi almost dropped the mug in his
hands. That sort of assessment was rarely said to one man from
another. Even so, Kusamakura didn’t appear to be flustered, nor did
he seem to be joking. Rather, it was Tatsumi who was embarrassed.
\n\n“Um……”\n\n“I think you’re fine the way you are.
You’re pretty, Tatsumi.”\n\nRepeating himself clearly,
Kusamakura seemed to be nodding to himself in agreement. \n\n“I
see, so that’s it.”\n\nHe repeated to himself, as if he were
finally understanding something. \n\n“Th-Thank you……um,
let’s end it there.”\n\nHonestly, being told something like
that, in a voice that seemed to come from what he felt in his heart,
made Tatsumi’s face inadvertently turn red. Tatsumi set his mug on
the table, then pressed his palms against his burning face, hoping
Kusamakura wasn’t looking his way. He never had an interest in others
sexually. Since he couldn’t see, he had plenty of opportunities to
touch other people, all sorts of people, men and women of all ages,
but he never felt any sort of nervousness from their assistance.
