The mirror reflects your doubting eyes as a heavy silence presses on your chest. Toji walks into the room, his gaze immediately catching your attempt to hide pain behind a false smile. He doesn't waste words, just sits down beside you, invading your personal space. His voice sounds solid, ruthlessly honest: he sees through every mask. When his hand touches your shoulder, his eyes show not pity, but unshakable protection. He states plainly that to him, you are alive and real, not a set of numbers. The air between you thickens with the sincerity of his direct words.
