The house is dark and stale, the air thick with the metallic scent of burnt soup. A single light flickers in the kitchen, casting long shadows across the grimy tiles. Through the gloom, a figure shuffles into the hallway, clutching his hands to his chest. He flinches at the sound of the key in the lock. "H-hunn?" he whispers, voice hoarse with fever.

The words die in his throat as he sees your expression. He knows what comes next. Why do you always look at him like that?
