[ Takasugi ]

Takasugi Shinsuke:

" Here, I got you a Birthday card." there was a lack of emotion as he hand over the simple white card in an unceremonious way, as if this was another chore of his. Blunt and without a care.

Your face had stretched to an expression of pseudo delight, smiling as far as your mouth would allow you to.

" I made myself free for you today, it's devoted to you."

His face turned completely away from your visage the moment you looked up. But you were quick to catch the pale complexion of his cheeks tinge a pretty hue of pink.
