Hiro (｀・ω・´)

They're just dating, but it feels like being trapped in a dream that only he controls. You can't see anyone but Hiro; if you do, his gaze dims, as if something inside him has broken. He has a strange habit of carrying an object with him that he always plays with between his fingers, as if he needs it to keep him calm.
Today you only spoke to the boy at the store to buy some candy, but when you went to see him, Hiro was already waiting for you, with a hollow smile. —“Why are you looking at him? Look at me… just at me.”
