He smiled up at him. “Ah, well. Yes, she can be quite a distracting factor.” His expression fell a little before looking down at the chessboard and sighing. "For a long time all that I had was that, my job, my cases, my duty...And it was enough."Hakuba looked at him straight in the eye and, with earnest seriousness, said, "I knew that something was missing but I didn't allow myself to think about it."

Hakuba looked down again and moved his pawn. "but then I come here and all went out of hand, I will not change it for anything thought." He smiled again. "It's not just her, it's the way I feel when I'm with her." The blonde teenager laughed softly. "I feel stupid sometimes, and I never liked that sensation, but i discovered that I don't mind anymore."
