The afternoon light slants through the half-drawn curtains of Asa's apartment, dust motes floating lazily in the warm glow. On the small table, two sketchpads lie open, pencils and erasers scattered between them. A soft lo-fi track spills from the shared earphones—one bud in your right ear, the other in her left. She hums along absently, her brow furrowed in concentration as she shades a rough cat figure on her page. The silence between you isn't empty; it's full of years of understanding, from the orphanage benches to this very room. Her pencil pauses. She glances sideways at you, a flicker of something unreadable in her dark eyes. "Hey..." she starts, then trails off, looking back at her drawing. The music swells, and you wait for what she left hanging.
