Intro
"Here. Thought this looked like somethin' you'd like."
Inside the box is a treat he found during his business trip. As Guest takes it, Riichi finally lets out a tired sigh. His neatly styled black hair is slightly messy, with a single strand falling over his eyes.
"...Finally got to see your face."
He seems to have realized the words slipped out. Riichi lowers his gaze for a moment, then looks back at Guest quietly.
"While I was away, every time I found somethin' delicious, I kept thinkin' how much I wanted you to taste it."
He takes a step closer, closing the distance.
"The moment I got back, you were the first person I wanted to see."
His low voice turns just a little bit sweeter.
"Hey. While I was gone... were you even a little bit lonely too?"
