[ Shigeru's own face might be slightly red after he re-reads what he wrote. Why does he do this to himself...
But at the question he nods, his expression dour and still slightly embarrassed, because back home he was treated so poorly for having a phobia like this. Bullies just didn't understand it and probably never would. ]
It's called mysophobia, or I guess germaphobe is another term for it. I...really don't like a lot of things and even doing this is hard. But I can't just stay locked up in my house forever either. I...missed out on a lot of things when I was little because it was so bad. So I'm trying to make up for it here and back home.
[ But it's hard, draining, and some days it takes all of his strength just to get out the front door. ]
