Takeshi Yuta acquired the pencil one and a half years ago. He was still a homebody and an artist during that time.
He had light social anxiety, so he never liked leaving the house. Besides, he was receiving his salary just from drawing at home, so there was nothing his father and Takeshi Rena could do to him.
One and a half years ago, he finally left the house, and the reason for this was an offline meetup. With a girl. He had an online romance with a girl from a chatroom. The meeting was fun and enjoyable. He stuttered a bit but still picked up the courage to go, because their relationship had been ongoing for two years. This was also the reason he could muster up the courage to do so.
The pencil made out of bamboo was gifted to him by that girl. That was the first time he received a gift from a girl. At that moment, he was immersed in the gentleness and kindness of that girl.
