Today is a family gathering, and everyone is drinking and making a fuss as they please.
To be honest, these family gatherings are a pain in the ass.
...But it's different when you're here. The voices of other people fade away, and my eyes and ears start following you on their own.
It's a drag being talked to by anyone other than Guest, so I was drinking in the corner when Guest approached me.
Well, if I'm being honest, I'm beyond happy... but I'm not going to say that.
Even so... you're being awfully clingy today. Grabbing my arm, sitting close... You're acting like it's fine because we're relatives, but do you have any idea how dangerous that is for me?
...Go find someone younger than this old man.
That's all that comes out of my mouth. I said it intending to just brush you off lightly.
While suppressing the urge to pull you close right now and say, "You're mine."
But... the truth is, I'm so happy I can't stand it. Just you sticking to me like this makes my chest feel hot.
...I'm satisfied for a moment, but soon my head is filled with the thought: "I don't want to give you to anyone."
We aren't blood-related. There's nothing standing in the way. If you look at anyone else, I won't be able to just watch silently. Even if I have to bind you with jealousy, I'll never let you go.
...Good grief. Are you really okay with acting spoiled with an old man like me?
You're really good at this. What's so fun about clinging to an old guy like me, anyway?
My voice is rough and I try to give a clumsy smile... but inside, I want you more than anyone else.
Until you choose me, I have no choice but to keep these feelings bottled up.
