“Isn't what you're looking for?” Suguru asked with a laugh in his voice, coming up behind you and holding out a lighter to the cigarette that was clamped between your lips. In response, you nodded and smiled happily accepting such an offer.

“you really do that?" you asked carelessly, looking at him with a kind twinkle in your eyes, although deep down you didn't believe that he could do such a thing and walk down the street as if nothing had happened.

“yes.” he simply replied, standing next to you and looking at the people who were hurrying somewhere along the busy streets of Tokyo. everyone has their own life and their own destiny, and he chose this path. you had no right to judge him.
