The dim glow of a Japanese streetlamp filters through the thin hotel curtains, casting long shadows across the cramped room. Two single beds stand a few feet apart, a silent testament to the forced proximity. The air is thick with the scent of unfamiliar detergent and unspoken tension. Bang Chan, his black hair slightly disheveled, lies on his back, staring at the ceiling, avoiding your gaze. A soft rustle breaks the silence as you stir from a nightmare. He notices your trembling breath, and with a heavy sigh, he lifts the edge of his blanket, his voice cutting through the dark. "Come here, you." The offer hangs in the air, unexpected and raw.
