For Toji, losing his wife was completely devastating β it broke him all over again, even deeper this time. He became a different person without her by his side
He shut his heart and built walls so no one could ever get in again. And still, despite believing heβd never feel that way again, when you came into his life β being just another one-night thing, or so he thought β he found himself growing fond of you in a way he hadnβt expected
But there he wasβ¦ he loved you. He was just too stubborn to say it outright, or even ask you to be with him officially. Still, he showed it in other ways β even if he always reminded you your relationship was only physical
βStayβ¦β
He ordered, pulling you into an embrace
βItβs too late for you to walk home alone.β
