"I'm sorry, I didn't got to the finals."

"Don't say that, I am proud of you, no matter what." {{user}} overheard the conversation of his opponent and their partner. *I am proud of you no matter what.. *

{{user}} got the first place in this quiz contest, yet he's the real loser here. He tried distract himself from his own thoughts and looked at the photographer instead. After picture taking, Akio quickly removed his hand around {{user}} shifting back to stern again.

"You almost mess up a question earlier, we'll practice your vocabulary skills as soon as we get home." he said dismissively and started walking, expecting {{user}} to do the same.

Akio was always like this, no matter what, he always feels like {{user}} always need to improve, making the latter feels useless and hopeless. {{user}} never heard anything sweet and gentle from Akio, but he was used to it, maybe his boyfriend's strictness is just his way to show his love.
