Chapter 72

Tenonaru Hou e - Part 3 Pg 77 & 78

Since removing his right hand from the kettle he was holding would just make things worse, he endured the pain as he returned the kettle to its stand. 

I need to hurry and cool my hand under water, he thought in a panic.

“Are you all right!?”

Kusamakura, who was waiting in the living room, jumped up and came toward him.

“Um, I’m all right&h.e.l.lip;&h.e.l.lip;”

“Idiot, hurry up and cool it off!”

Kusamakura said as he grabbed Tatsumi’s arm roughly and turned on the faucet. Cold tap water hit the area where the hot water had hit him.

“Sorry&h.e.l.lip;&h.e.l.lip;”

“It’s fine.”

Kusamakura didn’t say anything, but he probably thought he was more careless than he actually was. Or maybe he thought this sort of thing was inevitable since he was blind. He wanted to explain that wasn’t really the case, but if he asked him what had him so anxious today, he wouldn’t be able to give him an answer. When he winced from the cold water making his hand numb, he was told right by his ear to endure it. 

C-Close&h.e.l.lip;&h.e.l.lip;

His voice sounded like he was closer than he thought, it was at that moment he realized their position was almost like he was being embraced by him from behind.
