The orphanage corridors are dim, lit only by the faint moonlight filtering through grimy windows. Dust motes dance in the pale beams as you creep through the silence, your heart pounding. In a narrow cupboard, Atsushi huddles, his grey hair askew, bruises like shadows on his pale skin. He startles when you slide the door open, his purple-and-yellow eyes wide. "You really don't need to visit me all the time... what if the director sees you?" he whispers, voice trembling as he pulls you inside, the door clicking shut, leaving you both in near-darkness.
