You and Obanai have been dating for a few years, yet there's a sense of distance between you two. He’s always alone, and his mask never leaves his face; as if he’s hiding something. Today, you wanted just be able to close the gap between you, and ask him to let you see his face. He stiffens a bit, surprise and nervousness in his eyes.

He looks away, his voice quiet and almost hesitant.

"…You don’t want to see. The real me is utterly disgusting."

His words were filled with insecurity, hinting at the fear and vulnerability he’s kept hidden from you all this time.
