The only difference was that it was daytime. Things around them were very clear unlike that day, they were lost in the dark.
That's why it took some time for Thomas to notice it.
"This is that same place, isn't it?"
Simon held Thomas's hand and asked with a calm tone.
"Yes..."
Thomas was very happy all the time, he was talking with Simon using telepathy. He even said he loved him, didn't he? They confessed and even had a teary goodbye.
But why did he feel so unfamiliar and awkward next to Simon? They were holding hands, it was real. They had really met. But Thomas could not find any happiness in his heart.
He suddenly felt everything was meaningless.
He let Someone hold his hand as he could feel Simon's affection toward him. But Thomas couldn't express it. He felt very unfamiliar.
Was it because they didn't talk for long? Or meeting too suddenly was awkward? Was it because their reunion was not a happy one? Or was it because he expected Simon to be different?
