“I love you too,” Kiyoomi blubbered.
His affection was reciprocated! Atsumu’s heart soared. But Kiyoomi kept going.

Kiyoomi was weeping.

What he’d had for breakfast that morning? Not so much. The address of the apartment he’d moved into a few weeks ago? No… not that, either. The new season of /Wind Breaker?/ Not even a little.
