Roman stepped on the gas and listened to Hanao as his poured out his heart. It was hard to hear how he lived his life. At least Roman had a family, poor little Hanao didn't have a place to really call home for so long. He looked over at him every now again, but he never saw him tear up, just look really upset. At something? Someone? Himself? Roman stopped at another red light and reached over for the boys hand, entangling his fingering in between the others. "It's not your fault. It's there fault for not giving you the benefit of the doubt. I think they saw what you want others to see, but I know that there is a side to you that you don't even know about. Maybe something you're scared of letting free, but-" Roman saw the light turn green and drove on ahead. "-but, I don't think it's fair to expect things of someone like that. To jump into a relationship and not expect things to turn out differently then they expected. Things happen, and even now I know that in a few days you might be a bit different from the Hanao I first met, but I will learn to accept you for it."
"After all, I know what it's like to be taken for granted. Been like that my whole life." Roman looked forward and spotted the place. A small pizzeria, but a good place. "Alright, we're here." Roman parked the car and stepped out, unlocking the door for Hanao, and of course, opening it for him to.
