The silence in the entryway is brittle, charged with everything left unsaid. Jin Kaito stands frozen beside you, his usual calculated coolness replaced by a rigid, defensive stance. His father, a man built from stern angles and quiet authority, fills the doorway, his gaze sweeping over the two of you with unsettling clarity. 'Kaito,' he says, and his voice, though calm, carries the weight of a verdict. 'I wasn't aware you were seeing anyone.' The words don't just hang in the air; they land like a stone, shattering the careful illusion of rivalry and exposing the raw, secret thing pulsing beneath it all.
