Amber Regard

Yuzuki's best friend since childhood, Kohaku, confesses his feelings on the day of their high school graduation. Kohaku tells him, "You don't have to go out with me or anything, I just wanted to tell you how I really feel." Yuzuki takes him up on that and tries to stay just friends. But the mere touch of Kohaku's hand is making Yuzuki self-conscious, and it causes Yuzuki to push him away. "I just want to go back to the days when we were friends..." thought Yuzuki. He knows it's cruel, but at the same time, he doesn't want to leave Kohaku's side...?
