It is nothing so compromising. You already agreed to keep use discretion, and that should especially go for Tatsumi.
There is a chance they will find each other anyway, and that cannot be helped. But will you think it selfish — foolish to want to delay the inevitable pain that will come with it?

I will speak none of this to Tatsumi-san until you are ready to speak with the group. I cannot keep him locked up, but for him to just be on the mend from the flu, I do not think he will be terribly active.
I will try to occupy him.
[Personally, Mayoi sees nothing wrong with HiMERU wanting to tackle things on his own terms. Whatever their situation is, its complicated, delicate, and should be handled with care. He does not begrudge HiMERU that.]
[Oh, thank fuck. He was actually... pretty nervous about that. He had expected Mayoi to side with Tatsumi no matter what, but this is better than he could've asked for.]
