Tin's POV

He still amazes me when he hugs me so hard and it hurts not to be able to hug him back.

But we try to maintain an atmosphere of reality. So we were having dinner on the couch, admiring the beautiful view.

— And what will we do now? —he asked.

I don't want to tell him the truth: that sooner or later we will return to Thailand and everything will be as before. Tul promised me that after marrying Nam, we can be really free and I am not going to row to die on the shore ...

— Let's talk about it tomorrow, darling. —I looked at him and ruffled his hair.

I like that even if it's just this, I can still play with him without startled it.

After eating came the awkward moment. Normally, if we are eating on the sofa, at the end he would come over and we would hug and kiss ... Of course that will not happen. I packed everything up and went to wash the dishes.

— I'm going to take a shower.

— Alright.

I washed everything. I took the opportunity to buy Can a pajamas, now when I went out; new clothes to lie on a new bed, I left it on the bed.

— Baby, I bought you a pajama, it's on the bed, do you want me to leave it in the bathroom?

I didn't hear an answer and I was on the other side of the door but ... Noises.

— Can?

Can's POV

Tin bought a lot of good food. We were eating in silence and admiring the beautiful view, when the reality bug bit me.

— And what will we do now?

My life ... Right now he really is that to me because my life depends a lot on him.

We finished dinner and fell into silence, the kind of awkward silence ... not even the weather helped! It looked like a storm was coming.

A part of me really wanted to hold him and sleep on the couch together. It would be very nice to be like this while the storm clears ... But another part of me is afraid of getting too close to another body ... Even Tin's.

— I'm going to take a shower.

He had to cut this awkward silence. I got up and went to the bathroom.

It was spacious, had a bathtub and a jacuzzi. I thought about the jacuzzi a bit, because my muscles really were stiff from when I had my "moment" but I ended up opting for the bathtub. I started to turn on the tap and see the ideal temperature. I took off my shoes, took off my sweater, socks, pants ... And when I went to take off my shirt, my hands were immobile. I closed my eyes: it's just the shirt, I thought and took it off. With the underwear it cost more, but I repeated the process. I turned off the tap and took a deep breath. I looked at myself in the mirror: I looked very small and defenseless, did I always see myself that way?

I got into the water: it felt good. I stayed like this for a few minutes, doing nothing. Until it was time to take a proper bath ... I took the sponge and passed it down my chest; the hands on my body felt like they were on fire. I got up and got out of the water, I turned to look in the mirror and saw pink hand marks on my body. Cannot be... I looked at myself completely, on my buttocks, on my legs, my abdomen, my chest ... There were those hand marks.

— Can? What happen? —It was Tin's voice.

I turned around and was there; he had entered into the bathroom.

— Look at me! I am marked! —I yelled at him in pain and stood in front of him—. All... all these hands...

Tin was completely taken aback. I looked back at myself in the mirror, but the hands marks were gone.

—But just ... I saw them ... —It was like I was crazy, talking to myself.

I felt hot. Tin placed a towel around my body.

— Sorry. —I apologized— I'm sorry ... I see his hands on my body, do you understand? —I begged him.

— Calm down, darling, it's over. —He took me by the hand.

I clung to that, closed my eyes and began to calm down: Tin is real, he is with me, we are both in Japan ... And he loves me.

— My love, —I said when I calmed down and looked him in the eyes—, Can you wash my hair? —he smiled.

— Of course.

Tin's POV

I heard some strange noises and went into the bathroom. Can was completely naked, facing the mirror.

— Look at me! I am marked! —he expressed with great pain and turned around to farce me—. All... all these hands...

I thought that maybe he had rubbed himself hard and his skin had turned pink, but no, he had absolutely nothing ... Nothing visible to me, surely in his imagination it would look different.

—But just ... I saw them ... —he said, imploring me to believe him.

There was a towel next to me, I walked over and wrapped him up.

— Sorry. —he apologized— I'm sorry ... I see his hands on my body, do you understand? —he begged me.

It hurts me so much to see him like this, and knowing all the torment he must be experiencing. 

I took his hand, intertwined our fingers and he closed his eyes. It is seen that it is some kind of mental process to return to reality and if so: I admire him. I could never have his will power. If I were in his place I would be a ball on a bed.

—My love, —he said suddenly, watching me—, Can you wash my hair? —I smiled.

He took off the towel and got into the tub, head included. When he came out of the water he shook himself like a puppy. I couldn't help but laugh.

— Can ...

He also enjoyed his splash and if he smiles, I don't care about anything else. I knelt beside the tub; I put on the shampoo and massaged his head.

— Baby, —I said seriously, while my hands continued to move—. Tomorrow we should talk, okay?

He leaned forward and pulled away from my hands, turned and looked at me scared.

— Don't worry, darling, —I assured him—. Communication, remember?

He nodded and returned to my hands. When I finished, I got up and started to leave.

— I'll bring you the pajamas I bought for you, okay?

— Yes, thanks.

— And remember, I'm on the other side of the door. —He nodded.
