University of Problems 207 - Master of Disguise by Redlady2k

Not bad. Had a couple of classes, nice lunch. I'm planning just to wait until 9pm this evening, doing nothing. What about you?

Well, I'm okay.

Just okay?

I mean, um...

Oh, come on, spit it out. What's going on?

It's about Yuki.

Oh, you mean the trouble with her massage room?

Yeah... Oh, wait, you already know?

Uh-huh, I talked to her yesterday.

Oh!

Any updates on that?

Um, no, not really. I mean, she's still pretty crushed about it. This isn't easy for me either, you know?

I see.

She hasn't left her room since she got the news yesterday. Can't cheer her up.

Because we're not together anymore, you know?

There are boundaries now, and I have to be careful about crossing them.

I mean, it's like... it's just complicated.

The whole thing sounds pretty bad, but maybe it's a chance to bring them closer again.

Listen.

Uh-huh?

Maybe you don't need to overthink it so much.

You're still the closest person to her even if you're not dating anymore, and you're the only one who knows exactly how to comfort her.
