But he loves morinaga, I think you should try to re read it because he shows it a lot A paranormal
He does care for him and that's a given, but at least show MORE of it?? I get that it's been only a year or so since the fire happened but goddamn. I think the day he confesses directly is when I'm alr on my deathbed ahaha
just reject and avoid morinaga if you really don't like him so he can move on and chase someone else,,
