Kenji couldn't answer.
He wanted to say yes, but his shyness held his lips tightly sealed, unable to utter a word.
Keeping someone's belongings without their permission is a kind of twisted behavior. Initially, Kenji was terrified that Yuka would despise him for this, but her reaction surprised him—
She not only smiled but also leaned in and asked if he wanted it.
Too close for comfort, Kenji could see Yuka's chest partially covered by her black dress just by lowering his eyes. He anxiously looked up, but dared not meet her eyes, fearing she would see his true feelings.
Yet, when his gaze fell on her red lips and felt her warm breath, his body burned even more intensely. He felt the top button of his military uniform was too tight, making it hard to breathe, almost dizzying him.
During Kenji's torment, Yuka was slightly distracted.
