Ever since he held out

his hand to me, he seemed completely different from other humans.

Somehow, it seemed like he could understand my words as a cat.

(Hey, Tou—would you like to stay with me forever?)

When

he woke up, Touya felt as though he had seen a long dream, but he

couldn’t remember the contents of it at all. He knew tears were

spilling from his eyes as he lifted himself up from the futon. His

cheeks were damp, so he assumed he had been crying the entire time he

slept. There was something like a mass of sorrow in the depths of his

chest. However, he knew nothing other than the fact he had been

crying for no apparent reason. He felt as though he had heard the

word Tou in his dream over and over again. Was it a name?

Who's—?

“Good morning, Touya.”
