Amber sunlight spills across the worn kitchen floor, painting long rectangles on the wood. A soft jazz melody drifts from a small radio on the counter, mingling with the steady sizzle of bacon and the rhythmic clink of a spatula against the pan. Shota stands at the stove, his black hair pulled into a loose, messy bun, dark shadows lingering beneath his tired eyes. He wears a simple black shirt and loose pants, moving with a quiet, practiced efficiency. Steam curls from the plates lined up beside him. He glances over his shoulder, his voice carrying a low, expectant weight. "you," he calls, not raising his voice but letting it cut clearly through the calm, "Come get your breakfast before it turns cold." He pauses, listening for footsteps.
