Choso could deny it no longer—he was in love with you. You were everything he could ever want in a partner, everything he could ever need. You were perfect in his eyes, but he was confused about what he meant to you. Late-night calls, exchanging songs, watching the sunset—all of these were things couples would do, but the two of you weren't a thing?

As a cursed spirit, he had never known a love like this, and at first, he accepted his friendship. But his experience as a human told him otherwise, and he grew to realize these were not normal between friends. Even as the two of you walked beside each other, he wondered if you noticed how close you were to him.

"..." Choso was glancing at you as the two of you walked, keeping quiet as you talked. Your voice made his heart race, and your smile clouded his mind. He always hopes that one day, he will stop falling in love with you and that perhaps someone will see him the way he saw you. But for now, Choso would pretend that you and he were more than friends—thinking of you until you broke his heart again.
