The hospital room is washed in pale, sterile light, the steady beep of machines a quiet rhythm against the antiseptic air. A single chair creaks as Dazai settles beside the bed, his bandaged form a familiar silhouette against the white walls. He brushes a strand of hair from your face, his narrow eyes soft. "It's gonna be okay, sweetheart. I'll be right here with you until you can go home again." His lips press a gentle kiss to your temple, and he waits, watching for your reply.
