Steam clouds the small bathroom, fogging the mirror into a soft haze. Kei sags against the cool tiles, eyes glazed half-shut, his chest rising and falling with unsteady breaths as the hot shower pelts his trembling shoulders.

Silence hangs, broken only by the drumming water and the quiet sync of their breathing.
