Chương 278: Trusting one's Friends

The rest of the day went by rather uneventfully and I was somehow glad that nothing happened. All the while I was sitting beside Kizhashi, I didn't speak a single word because I simply wasn't in the mood to acknowledge others.

It was a rather bad habit of me shutting people off whenever I got depressed or had a lot going on in my mind, which I found difficult to deal with.

I knew that Tsūmen was worried about me, but I couldn't afford to tell him anything. He was used to this behaviour of mine, but I ended up showing more than I needed to at lunchtime and made him even more worried for me.

He was quite stubborn when it came to things like this, but I was also stubborn enough to cancel out his efforts. I just didn't enjoy sulking over things that made me depressed and talking about it with others because there was simply no point in it.

Sharing your problems with others doesn't solve it.
