- xxxxxOnce Hayato settled in, class was in session. It felt βawkwardly enoughβ like she was being given "the talk" (albeit of a very different nature). Nothing could have prepared her for the onslaught of foreign information, but she did her best to soak it in. Her expression was colored by an intermingling of determination and interest as she mentally noted as much as she could.
xxxxxxxxxx Embracing members of the opposite sex β bad.
xxxxxxxxxx Running into Ryota β bad.
xxxxxxxxxx Treating Ryota like a dog today β bad.
xxxxxxxxxx The big picture involving Ryota right now β looking very bad.
xxxxxxxxxx Weakness β transformation β bad
xxxxxxxxxx Cold β potentially bad.
xxxxxxxxxx Fear β instinct β transformation βbad.
xxxxxWhen she reached the long awaited break, she inhaled and exhaled deeply. Thoughts of all kinds were spreading through her mind like wildfire, many about the things left unsaid. But of the words that were spoken, there was one thought that echoed, leaving a heavy imprint.
xxxxx"Most of us are very careful about how we approach people. Being close to people is hard.β
xxxxxA glint of sadness flickered in her eyes as she pondered the thought, forcing her to look away. Now it made sense why she had managed to cling to him for so many years without being shooed away by a jealous girlfriend of some sort. Their loneliness...both Ryota and Hayato's....for everyone with the curse.... it wasn't exactly taken on by choice. Fortunately, she didn't linger on it for long before managing to snap at herself.
xxxxxStop it, Haruna. He didn't open up pandora's box so you could feel sorry for them.
Knowing it was just as tiring for him to explain as it was for her to absorb, she decided to backtrack to a less serious part of his lecture series.
xxxxxβPlease do not hug me to test this. Use Ryota when he changes back.β
The poor dog. Hayato seemed to take pleasure in throwing him under the bus. Letting out a quiet laugh to herself, she turned her focus back to Hayato.
"You're REALLY concerned about my interest in hugging you right now? Hayato. If I haven't had that courage in 3 years time, I definitely don't think I'll have it with the possibility of you 'taking care' of me," she teased, arms crossed.
On a more serious note, she offered Hayato a grateful smile before shifting her sight to the window and the ever falling snow. She spoke again, more softly and sincerely this time.
"Thank you. For sharing. And trusting me. I'll try to make it count. Promise."
