The silence inside the dressing room is comfortable, until Yuto busies himself by humming one of his old solo songs, the strange one about DNA to be exact, when his mind stumbles unto a jumble of English words that he didn’t understand at all. He sees Keito sitting beside him on the floor, eyes fixated upon an open English-language book, and pokes at his side until Keito looks back at him. “Keito?”
“Yes?”
“What’s ‘euphoria’?” Yuto asks, and when Keito blinks at him, he feels the need to add an example sentence, “As in ‘let me touch your euphoria’?”
Keito looks confused, and it makes Yuto even more curious about this mysterious new word. “You can’t touch ‘euphoria’. It’s a feeling.”
Keito did know what it meant! Yuto beamed and felt proud to have such a knowledgeable friend. His eyes gleam with interest as he asks excitedly,“What kind of feeling is it, Keito?!”
“Um… How should I put this… It’s like, the feeling of happiness. How you feel when you’re really happy.”
“Ohhh.” Yuto absently lets his fingers drum against the cold floor as he thought. “ ‘Euphoria’ is like… When I see interesting bugs?”
“Uh-huh.”
“Or when I’m with Keito!” This brings a smile to Keito’s face, but Yuto is suddenly frowning. “But then, how can you touch ‘euphoria’?”
“Hmmm.” Keito grins at him sheepishly. “I touch you instead?”
Yuto smiles. “That would be ‘euphoria’!”
