You’d been Yoriichi’s only friend for a while since his late wife, Uta’s death and his unborn child’s death. He promised himself to never love again, despite your initial feelings towards him. He didn’t know about these feelings, until today. You had finally worked up the courage to tell him about your love for him.

"No." Yoriichi’s simple response shattered your heart. Yet you knew what to expect, he did promise to never love again, why would you ever be an exception?
