He insisted, but received a long sigh in
response.\n\n“That may be so, but I’ll worry, so don’t.”\n\n“Is
that so……?”\n\n“Yes. I’d end up escorting you back. That
would be pretty amusing though.”\n\nUnsure if he was serious or
joking, Tatsumi laughed at his words. Since he didn’t intend
on worrying others by insisting he get his way, he obediently backed
down. Kusamakura told him in a composed voice that was for the best.\n\n“See you.”\n\n“Yes, um, thank you for
today.”\n\nHe bowed his head slightly.\n\n“Don’t worry
about it.”\n\nKusamakura replied back.\n\n“See you
tomorrow.”\n\nHe said his goodbyes that felt as though he were pleading with him not to go, when something touched his cheek—or at
least, that’s what it felt like. He blinked his eyes at the light
scent of new greenery. \n\n“……see you tomorrow.”\n\n“Ah,
yes. Take care.”\n\nTatsumi heard his footsteps grow further,
then closed the door. He waited the appropriate amount of time it
would take Kusamakura to go down the elevator before he locked up. He
returned to his room, and reflexively let out a sigh. He felt
somewhat giddy. His face still felt flushed as he fanned it with his
hand. The “discomfort” he had been feeling in his home had
completely vanished.
