—How embarrassing. \n\nHe
returned to his workplace, but instead of going directly to the
office, he took refuge in a bathroom stall. \n\nHaa, haa, his
breathing was labored. Aware that was mixed with tears, Tatsumi bit
his lip. \n\n—I’m so embarrassed. Embarrassed. Embarrassed,
embarrassed……!\n\nHe put the handkerchief in his pocket to
his eyes. Pain spread slowly through the depths of his barely
functioning eyes. He wanted to obliterate his self that was so elated
and cheerful earlier. Kusamakura probably thought he was a burden. That
pained him, made him sad. \n\nWas this really something to cry about, he
thought. The pain in his chest was unbelievable. His tears
continued to overflow as he desperately wiped them away with his
handkerchief. He was unable to check whether his face was swollen or
not. There was no way a man his age could go into his workplace with
his face swollen from crying.
