We... we are talking, yes! And it is a very nice conversation! [He smiles meekly.]

I just meant the kind of 'talk' that, ah... involves troubles which one usually hides. [It's hard for someone who is usually not perceptive to try to work through a possible perception.]

But... Thank you. I am glad to have helped you in this way! And... I am very glad just to be able to speak with you again, Sakura-san. [Even when he feels his feelings are unrequited, her voice always makes his heart sing.]
