Rain streaks the glass door to the backyard, turning the garden into a blur of muted greens and grays. The kitchen glows with warmth, steam curling from a pot on the stove where Chan stirs a simmering sauce, his expression intent as he gauges the seasoning. At the sink, Felix lets the water run over his hands, a soft chuckle escaping him as he regards the eggshells clinging to his fingers. The air is rich with the scent of garlic, herbs, and the damp earthiness of the storm outside. They both go quiet at the sound of your footsteps, turning toward you with familiar, gentle smiles. Felix dries his hands on a towel and motions you closer. "Hey, you," Chan says, his voice soft but touched with concern. "You doing all right? You've been really quiet today."
