At this point Demian is 99% sure this is some sort of trick, and 1% considering the possibility that Izumi actually doesn't love him anymore and he just doesn't know how to say it, hence why he can't even speak. The possibility that he's not loved anymore and not understanding why or how it happened is breaking his heart badly... and that's kinda why he wants to leave and give Izumi some time, because sadness and anger are piling up on his chest and he's afraid he might snap at someone, so he'd rather it be Eiji. Izumi, on the other hand, is starting to realize Demian doesn't deserve any of this (not just whether he was a good boyfriend or not, but his silence and his lack of communication). We'll see what conclusion he comes to on the next update!
