I replayed the events of the afternoon in my mind, trying to make sense of what had just happened between us. Hotaru's touch lingered on my skin, igniting a fire of desire I couldn't refuse. But with each stolen, I felt myself falling deeper into a tangled web of emotions.

"What am I doing?" I murmured. I needed space to clear my thoughts so I found myself wandering into the nearby park.
