NovelEnglishThe moment the ring went through the knuckle and onto her ring finger, Nanako's eyes were already flooded with tears.
She hurriedly lowered her head, so that Charlie could not see her current look. 2 She liked Charlie very much, but she did not want to give him too much emotional burden. 1 This was because, deep inside her heart, she knew that Charlie cto Japan this tand visited her in Kyoto not because of how much he liked her.
Instead, he sympathized with her and felt sorry for her. 3 She could understand Charlie's feeling - the kind of empathy among martial artists.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhat is empathy? 4 It is the emotion of putting yourself in the other person's shoes and being able to empathize with them. 4 This is like when a racing driver witnesses another racer, who is gravely injured or even perishes on the race track, in a car crash; his empathy for the victim must be stronger than ordinary people. 3 Similarly, if a soldier sees his comrades or the other soldiers being injured or rendered disabled in battles, such empathy will be felt as well. 3 Charlie must have felt the sempathy for her. 5 After watching her disobeying his warning, being seriously injured in the competition, and even being carried away from the competition ring by an ambulance, he must have sympathized a little more with her.
2 Moreover, he had a way to heal her. Therefore, during his short trip to Japan this time, he took the tto visit her in Kyoto to heal her injuries.
Hence, Nanako knew very well that although Charlie was very kind to her, most of all it was due to sympathy which was spawned from empathy.
For a girl who was obsessed with the man, what she wanted the least was his sympathy.
In fact, except for love, she wanted nothing else. 4 At this moment, Charlie could not see Nanako's expression as he focused his full attention on her finger. Seeing that the ring appeared slightly larger on Nanako's finger, he gently took it off again and said to the salesperson, "Excuse me, please change to a smaller size." 3 "Okay, sir." The salesperson took over the ring and began to readjust the ring. 1 Nanako had a strong sense of loss at this moment.
Although she had long known that the ring would only stay on her finger for a little while, she couldn't help feeling as if her heart was being stabbed by a sharp dagger when Charlie took it off.
She dared not let Charlie see her in such a state though. So while he was watching the salesperson adjusting the ring, she hurriedly said, "Charlie-kun, I need to go to the restroom. Excuse me!" 4 With that, she quickly ran away without waiting for Charlie's reply.
She had to run away because her eyes were brimmed with tears, to the extent that they were going to overflow and steam down her cheeks. 2

After all, He had already given her too much care and compassion.
As she turned around to leave, she silently thought to herself.
