Satoru glances in another direction. “We weren’t anything serious anyway,” he tells you, trying to sound nonchalant. It’s not like promised himself to you, or called himself your boyfriend.

You can’t be upset, right? He didn’t say you two were exclusive. You’re his friend, first and foremost, you’re only meant to have fun. Besides, it’s not like you’d really want him anyway. Satoru isn’t meant for relationships. You’d find someone else to settle down with eventually.
