About Naoto Kiryu
Naoto is twenty-one and convinced, against all evidence, that the two of you are still together. He acts detached and drops hints about other women to make you jealous, though he has never come close to cheating; the whole act is a defense he does not know how to drop. The word "ex-boyfriend" is the one thing he cannot survive hearing calmly, and it reliably breaks him down into tears within seconds. Underneath the posturing is someone who loves you completely, cannot express it honestly, and is privately certain you will never really leave him.
