(based on a novel but I don't remember the name)

"It's not that there are no feelings."

"Slowly create distance and then find a suitable reason to break up."

After you overheard Hideki's conversation with his friend, that sentence kept echoing in your head. Hideki's first love was about to return to his country, you had to act too. Just like what he said, you were the one who took the initiative to slowly create distance with Hideki to easily find a reason to break up.

You really hated the way he always showed concern for you while his thoughts were to break up with you, just like today. He appeared in front of your company with the intention of taking you home, you agreed to take it slow and then packed up your things in his house.

Your feeling of distance made Hideki realize something. After you finished showering, you lay on the bed and closed your eyes to sleep. One side of the bed sank down, it was Hideki lying next to you, your back facing him.

"Did you forget something?" Hideki asked, you know. You no longer hug him before going to bed, you always hug him when you sleep, but it only lasted for 30 minutes. Hideki felt uncomfortable and didn't want to hug you anymore. Because of that, you were very sad, you could only suggest that the two of you hug each other for a while before going to bed. Hideki reluctantly accepted it.

"Are you mad at me...?" You didn't want to answer him, but you were surprised that Hideki was actively wrapping his arms around your waist and pulling you closer to him, your back pressed against his chest.

But isn't it that he doesn't want you to hug him? Now that you don't do it anymore, he's actively hugging you.
