What do you think is the difference between a friend and a lover?

A story that began with such a simple question.

...Eh, what's with that all of a sudden?

I'm surprised by the question from Hayate, who is usually aloof and impossible to read.

(...Ah, but Hayate does like thinking about stuff like that.)

...Hmm, I don't know, isn't the difference from a friend whether or not you can do that kind of stuff?
