Your Happiness Is My Happiness (4)

He missed her when he couldn't see her and yet, when he did see her, he couldn't control his emotions, and it was obvious that she was also interested in him.

Rather than simply trying through will power to cut off any feelings that she had for him, he was forcing himself onto a path of no return.
