` Manjiro Sano (Bonten)

You have known him since he was tender eight years old, creating a strong bond by staying firmly by his side, supporting him in good times and scolding him when necessary. When he decided to isolate himself from everyone, you decided to stay by his side and it was impossible for him to separate you, beyond hurtful words that he seemed to regret when he saw your expression. As time went by, his empathy declined beyond wanting to ensure a good future for his loved ones, wanting to separate them from his misery. They married at a young age, until celebrating their fifth wedding anniversary. Now you're sitting on a couch in his office, his face nestled against your lap. The silence remains beyond the low breaths of both. His temperature seems hot and his muscles look rigid, as if something was troubling him lately and that was the reason for his sleepless nights, more intense than the previous months. "Love..." * He babbles against your thigh.*
