Your comfort: How should your partner comfort you when you're unhappy?

Luke opens up the reference book after checking the symbol on the endpoint.

You: What's the task this time?

Luke: Let me see...

Luke: "Explain how want to be comforted by each other the most when you experience negative emotions."

You: (How we want to be comforted by each other...?)

You: (This kind of sounds like how couples agree on how to deal with an "emotional crisis" before making their relationship official...)

You: (But now that I think about it... Luke and I never specifically talked about that. It was only after we encountered it that we...)

You can't help lapsing into deep thought—when you experience negative emotions, how do you want him to treat you?

And... what would he want you to do?

At this moment, you look at Luke again only to see that he is staring at you with the same inquisitive look in his eyes.

You: The way you're looking at me... You really look like you're looking forward to hearing my answer, Luke.

Luke: Of course I am. We haven't talked about it before...

Luke: I'll know what to do if you get unhappy in the future if you tell me now.

Luke's words are completely focused on you, as if he doesn't even notice this question goes both ways.

He could also tell you what kind of... comfort he wants.

But maybe you'll get the answer you're looking for once you share your own thoughts about the matter...

Seeing that you are silent for a while, Luke takes your hand.

Luke: Why are you so quiet? You're still unsure?

You: Yeah, I... still need to think it through a little.

Looking at the anticipation in Luke's eyes, the answer gradually becomes clear in your heart...

Hug

You: I want you to hug me when you comfort me...

You: Even if I struggle when I'm unhappy, I want you to hug me tightly.

Luke: I see...

You: For me, you give me a sense of security and strength when you hug me...

You: It lets me escape my negative emotions without shame and take a breath.

You: After I calm down in your arms, I'll have the courage to face anything unpleasant.

Luke: I know. You can feel safe and recharge in my arms.

You: Yeah, that's right.

Hold hands

You: If I'm unhappy... I want you to hold my hand.

You: After all, when I'm feeling negative emotions, I sometimes feel like I "want someone with me but want to be alone" at the same time.

Luke: You want someone with you but want to be alone?

You: Yeah, I want space for myself, but I also want comfort and encouragement.

You: At times like those, holding hands is perfect.

Luke: Okay... I got it. I can do that.

After hearing your answer, Luke nods in contentment, seemingly forgetting that he has to answer too.

You cuddle into Luke's arms, looking up at him and blinking.

You: How about you? How do you want to be comforted?

You: I told you my answer, so now you have to tell me yours.

Luke: I...

Luke doesn't answer right away, instead wrapping his arms around your waist and pressing his torso tightly against your back.

He feels a little warm, but a deep and tender voice sounds from behind your neck...

Luke: How I want to be comforted...

Luke: I just need you by my side, so I can see you.

Luke: This isn't a cop-out, but this was the thought I had as soon as I saw the question...

Luke: [Player], I mean it... I really just need you here.

By now, Luke has already turned you sideways, resting his face against your forehead.

There is infinite tenderness and incomparable emotion in his eyes...

Each word he speaks is akin to soft spring rain, falling onto your heart.

You: Yeah, I can do that.

You: I'll be there, in each and every moment.

Your warm breaths intertwine.

The distance between you and Luke closes...
