Rin. Not even swimming is just about swimming to you.

[It's a relief to hear that Rin does at least realize that much about himself. If swimming was just about swimming, it would've been easier for Sousuke to get back into Rin's life, but swimming is everything. It's how he makes friends and remembers his father and apparently, how he falls in love.

Sousuke sighs and, against all probability, he smiles, even if Rin can't see it. Honesty. It makes things a lot easier. Especially if Rin's being honest with himself now as well as Sousuke, though it seems like he's been being honest with himself for a while now.]


I wasn't sure till the end. Till you took him back to Australia with you. Even then, it wasn't gonna be real till you let it be.

[Because if Rin stayed in denial forever, then it didn't matter how obvious it was to Sousuke. No matter how much it hurt when Rin and Nanase left and came back. Sousuke's pain wasn't enough to make it real. Rin was the only one who could do that.

None of that's in Sousuke's voice now, though. He came to terms with that--with Nanase's place in Rin's life--long before getting here. One honest admission deserves another.]


I'm glad you two are getting it figured out here.
