Summary
Satoru and Suguru visit a bakery and share a rainy afternoon.
“Suguru takes a small bite. Lets the sugar melt on his tongue. Lets the brief moment delude him. Delude him into thinking that threading the moments like these together would be enough. Enough to craft a life of some sort. The lie raises the hairs on the back of his neck. But he’d make sure to wrap the deceit under his surface— under layers and layers of stait-laced judgment. He’s buried things like this before. He knows how to do it— how to drown the floating thoughts until all they know how to do is sink. And once they’ve sunk, he knows they’re safe from Satoru’s reach. It’s a graveyard of his own creation."
