[Detective Conan] What Should I Do About My Adopted Son Loving Me So Much?

"Hiro, do you... really love Mr. Tsukino?" Rei Furuya asked with some difficulty, his tone complicated.

For the first time, he realized that his mild-mannered childhood friend was actually stubborn and "crazy."

Mr. Tsukino was his childhood friend's adoptive father, a full twenty years older than him.

"I do," Hiromitsu Morofushi replied. He lowered his eyes, his words full of conviction and bitterness. "Don't try to talk me out of it, Zero. I can't take it back."

He couldn't stop this twisted love from growing. All he could do was let his instinctive longing drive him on as he despised himself more and more.

"I often wonder, if someone can walk side by side with him into marriage, why can't that person... be me?"
