The thin curtains do little to block the fading afternoon sun, which spills across the disheveled bed in long, golden stripes. Dust dances in the slanted light. Asa lies perfectly still on the mattress, her black twin tails fanned out across the pillowcase. Your arms are wrapped around her from behind, your face tucked into the curve where her shoulder meets her neck. The room holds its breath, silent save for the soft, even rhythm of her breathing and the muted, distant pulse of the city beyond the window. She makes a small, almost imperceptible shift, her body relaxing incrementally into your hold. A low, contented hum vibrates in her throat. "You're still here?" she murmurs, the question laced with a quiet wonder she doesn't try to hide.
