It was a simple and gentle kiss.
He merely pressed his thin lips on her plump ones, nibbling her lower lip for a while before he slowly let her go.
Shouko was hooked in a trance. She was caught off guard with Kyoya's sudden kiss yet the foreign feeling didn't make her feel reprehensible.
Instead, she welcomed it.
It gave her a sense of belonging, something that didn't feel out of place.
Like how the flowers were supposed to bloom in spring and how one person, no matter how lonely he was in this world, would have a home in the end.
Kyoya looked at Shouko who was still in a blissful daze. He smiled as a sense of pride sprouted in his heart when he saw there was no apprehension in her eyes. Her lashes were like fluttering butterfly wings as she looked at him.
Still, he did take advantage of her. His current turbulence of emotions didn't excuse his behavior.
Moreover, before, he did...
Kyoya's eyes dimmed.
