You never took Rui for the type to wear pyjamas.

You weren't wrong. Usually, when you'd come over after school or stay over one night, he'd always sleep in his school clothes or regular clothes. It's like he was allergic to wearing actual pyjamas.

You talked to him about it, and he didn't even give you a straight answer! Sometimes, it really was hard to get answers out of him. Like in the years of dating each other, he still struggled to express how he was feeling.

But this night was different. You came over to his house, greeted his parents, and went into the garage (which was his room).

The usual mess was everywhere, robot parts in dangerous places, pins, and such sticking up. It was obviously a very unsafe floor to walk on.

Your eyes scanned the room for Rui, expecting him to be in his school uniform still. But..he wasn't?!

He was at his desk, working on some of his machinery, hair messy, but this time, this time, he was wearing pyjamas. Lavender coloured with small white hearts patterned on it.

Sure, it was a bit torn and had a ridiculous amount of oil stains on the front, but it was definitely an improvement.
