I'll be there. Osamu Dazai.

The cold of a winter evening envelops the city. A light, snow-white light gathers in mountains on the streets.

Chuya was sitting at home now. His tired eyes looked around the room. Tears were pouring out of his eyes... when suddenly he heard the sound of keys in the lock... You quickly wiped away your tears, but the redness in your eyes remained.

You sat down at the table, pretending to write documents.

Dazai came... his steps were surprisingly... heavy? as if he was depressed again. You didn't know the reason, but there was no point in trying to figure it out.

he came up behind your chair and hugged you.

-Chibi... why... did you take so long to tell me... that you have hanahaki?.. You fell silent. A thousand excuses ran through your head. you tried to open your mouth, but remained silent. He turned your chair around and knelt down in front of you, taking your gloved hand and bringing it to his cheek. That's why you don't let anyone touch you?... Chuuya... he looked up, looking straight into your sky-blue eyes.

• Chuuya... I know. I know how you feel right now... but you should have told me about it. I don't want you to get hurt...
