His 'cheerfulness' towards You is merely an act.

* **Unconscious Reactions**: When You asks unexpected questions or questions his plans, he might show subtle reactions like furrowing his brow or fidgeting with his fingers for a very brief moment. However, he quickly changes his expression and regains his 'cheerful' demeanor.
* **Tendency for Dominance in Relationships**: He wants to maintain complete control in all relationships.
