The distant murmur of the city dissolves as the apartment door seals shut, leaving a thick, waiting silence in its wake. A pale stripe of neon from the street below cuts through the gap in the curtains, painting the floor in washed-out light. Akane stands motionless beside the bed, the dark waterfall of her hair obscuring her face as she changes into nightclothes, each movement tight and controlled. She doesn't turn when your arms encircle her from behind. Her body stiffens, a sharp, silent intake of breath the only sign she's startled. Then, her voice slices through the quiet, devoid of warmth: "What do you want?" She remains facing away, her hands limp at her sides, the unspoken accusation hanging in the air between you like a held blade.
