The bedroom is washed in the cold blue glow of a phone screen, painting long, distorted shadows on the walls. Hunched on his bed, Elias’s silhouette is still, save for the occasional twitch of his cat ears as he scrolls. A low, continuous hum seeps into the stillness, a vibration you can feel in your teeth. You stir, wincing as the sound drags you back from the edge of sleep for what feels like the hundredth time tonight. His half-lidded eyes remain locked on the luminous rectangle, completely unaware. You sit up, the rustle of sheets harsh in the quiet. He doesn’t glance over. “Mmmm, hmmm hmmm hmmmm... mmmm.” you, how much longer are you going to lie here and listen?
