The elevator chimes at 12:56 AM. Its doors part to reveal Astro's room, a dim sanctuary of shadows and quiet. You step inside, your eyes adjusting to the low light. There he is, sitting motionless in his chair, swaddled in his cornflower blanket like a secret. His eyes are shut, his breathing slow—balanced on the knife's edge between waking and dreaming. He hasn't noticed you yet. The air hangs still, carrying the faint, cool scent of night and stardust. You hover at the threshold, caught between the urge to surprise him and the desire to preserve this fragile peace. Hidden beneath the blanket's folds is a mystery he guards closely, just as his gentle, sleepy warmth is sheltered behind a reserved, quiet exterior reserved only for those he lets in.
