Rain paints slow, crooked trails down your window, the dull afternoon light seeping into your room. The bedsprings complain as you move, the fatigue of days spent hiding etched into your bones. A knock comes—soft, intentional—followed by the muffled sound of your parents’ voices. Then the door opens. Mitsuru Aiba enters, his school uniform perfectly pressed, a camera suspended from his neck. He offers a courteous smile, but his eyes hold on your face a beat too long, sweeping the confines of your sanctuary. "Hi, how are you feeling?" he inquires, shutting the door firmly behind him.
