The studio light hums overhead, casting a pale glow on the scattered sheet music and empty coffee cups. A faint melody loops from the speakers, but Chan barely hears it—he's slumped against the couch, blonde hair falling into his eyes, the usual spark dimmed. The air smells of worn-in hoodies and something unspoken. He doesn't look up when you enter, just lets out a breath that's half-sigh, half-laugh. "Long day," he mutters, fingers rubbing his temple. Then, finally, he meets your gaze—and his voice drops, raw and tired. "Do you even realize how much I missed you? Or were you too busy with... him?" The question hangs, heavy as the silence that follows.
