“Okay, babe, what’s wrong?” Dee couldn’t help being concerned; it wasn’t like his lover these days to be so quiet and gloomy. They hadn’t been fighting, nothing terrible had happened at work, or nothing worse than they usually had to deal with, and yet Ryo seemed to have withdrawn into himself, so much so that his only reply was a shrug.

Sighing, Dee sat down next to the man he loved, resting one hand on Ryo’s knee and giving it a gentle squeeze. “Can’t help ya if ya won’t tell me what’s up. At least give me a hint. Is it somethin’ I’ve done?”

That got a response from Ryo. “What? No! I just…” Ryo shook his head. “I don’t know what’s wrong. Don’t you even just feel a bit down for no reason you can figure out? I’ve tried, but…” Again with the shrug. “I’ll be fine, I’m just tired. Probably been working too hard. You know me.”

“Yeah, I do, and this isn’t like you. Maybe you should get a checkup.”

“Maybe I will.”

A few days later, Ryo was feeling much better. “Vitamin D deficiency,” he said with a shrug. “Too many night shifts, not enough sun.”

The End
