TOH
Now that he was fully awake, Toh didn't know what to say to her. The earlier confidence he had in his half asleep state had vanished. 'What on earth possessed me to kiss her? Or touch her hair?'
The two of them walked around the block in silence for a few minutes before Sumire spoke up.
"Quit avoiding me."
"Sumire--" Toh started. But, he didn't know what to say.
No, that's not the issue. The issue is, he has far too many things he wants to say to her.
"I know why you're doing it, but it hurts."
Toh felt like someone had just cut his heart up with a knife hearing those words. Before he could say anything, he hears sobbing and sees Sumire crouched on the ground. Her face buried in her arms.
'I really am a jerk, what am I doing?'
Toh sighed and crouched down. "I'm sorry beautiful."
"Stop apologizing. I-I don't like it when you apologize."
"You won't let me apologize?" Toh said amused.
