A habit

SUMIRE

"Yes, it became a habit even after you left." Sumire admitted. 

'When I took care of my appearance it reminded me of Toh. Whenever I brushed my hair, I would remember how he would comb my hair with his fingers. I would remember how he picked clothes for me, clothes that were practically made for me.'

Toh taught her many things about fashion, and how to care for her appearance. 

"I see." Toh trailed off. "You know, I didn't tell you those things because I thought you looked bad. It was the opposite. You looked like a vision even in a jumper, and plain clothes. If I enchanted that beauty, I knew I'd never be able to keep my hands and eyes away from you."

Sumire sighs deeply. "Well, you're certainly right about not being able to keep your hands away."

Toh chuckled. "You left so many openings beautiful, it was easy."

Sumire pouted. "So, you were just teasing me?"
