That guy's answer was within my expectation. He is a man with a reserved personality but is very honest about his feelings.
"Like? Huh?"
However, when I heard him say this again, jealousy welled up in my heart. But clearly, I deliberately asked this question. It's not like I had to ask.
I didn't want to confirm that guy's feelings and then find a way to solve something. No, maybe I wanted to restrain him by confirming. I recalled his confused expression.
Even I myself think my behavior is quite childish. But even if this is just a childlike possessiveness, there's nothing I can do about it.
Seeing the frowning face reflected on the train door, I couldn't help but laugh at myself mockingly. Really, when it comes to that person's matters, I lose all composure. I want to become a more decent person and not make him feel uneasy or cry anymore.
"...Really, so childish."
