Haruki drove to the hotel he planned to take Hiroshi to. He chose a different room on that floor. A room different from the room they had decorated for Hiroshi's birthday.
Hiroshi turned to Haruki when they walked in, and the door was closed behind them. He had so much he wanted to say, he wanted so badly than ever to confess his feelings.
He wanted to show Haruki a picture of what he felt and the string holding him back all along snapped and he reached for Haruki's hand determined to simply announce that he was in love with him and he would never be with anyone else in the life time, no, he could not be with anyone else.
Haruki saw the move the man made. He saw and recognised the emotions in the man's eyes, but he warned himself that it was all an illusion he should not believe, because if it was true, that would mark the end of whatever was going on between him and Hiroshi.
