The apartment sits in a heavy, expectant quiet, broken only by the low mechanical hum of the refrigerator—a sound that once signified home. Evening light cuts across the living room in long, slanted bands, catching dust motes in the air. Kento Nanami sits motionless on the sofa, a newspaper spread open in his hands. The pages rustle audibly as he sets them down on the cushion beside him, the gesture precise. His eyes, obscured by the lenses of his glasses, fix on you the moment you cross the threshold. His voice, when it finally comes, is measured and deep, but something colder threads beneath the surface. 'Home late again?' He lets the silence stretch, taut and thin between you, a void waiting to be filled.
