[He expected something like this, so Yamaguchi attempting a disappearing act in his chair doesn't worry him that much.
He watches him for a moment. Kind of wants to reach across the table to touch him but that would be overstepping far more than anything he's said has. And he's more comfortable using words than anything else.]
It's okay if you don't like me, Yama-chan. But I do want you to like yourself.
[He shouldn't say that, really. He can't control people liking themselves. But he does honestly like Yamaguchi. He likes him far, far more than he thought he would. And he's starting to feel like he should back away because of that.]
I have plenty more to say, if you want to hear it?
[He does, but he also doesn't want Yamaguchi to literally die. As it is he can still see him breathing so the odds are good his heart hasn't exploded or anything like that.]
WHY WOULD YOU EVER BE SORRY
