Whatever it was that was bothering Akira, it was definitely not nothing at all. Josh could tell even before he started to sob, although the added tears only made the concern within Josh grow for his boyfriend.
"Baby, tell me." Josh said, his voice still slightly stern but he didn't get upset, showing no signs of anger whatsoever. "Shh, calm down Akira." Josh muttered, feeling his heart ache. It was difficult to see someone he cared so much for feeling that way, and he couldn't do anything about it. If he was there, he'd wrap his arms around Akira as tight as he could, allow him to cry into his chest but…he couldn't, and that frustrated him to no end.
