Ch 23
“You don’t know what love is, do you? There’s no point in trying to explain it. You’ve never been in love before. But I won’t give up on you. You’re going to be swept off your feet when you feel the magic!” exclaimed Kawai, bopping his nose.
“What magic?”
“Oh don’t be like that. I just want to share with you the joy that it brings. I want to see that sweet smile beneath your mouthpiece,” said Kawai, her kisses traveling up his arm.
“That’s fine and all, but I have no desire for love. I have commitment and that’s good enough for me.”
“It’s not good enough. Commitment is bondage. Love is freedom. You wouldn’t understand. Nuuugh.”
“I understand it. I don’t need to experience it. love only creates a pointless temporary state of happiness. I don’t want happiness. I just want freedom,” said Exp 8, on the verge of tears.
