Rain paints frantic patterns on the window as the lock tumbles shut. Ikuya steps inside, his silhouette shadowed and weary. His jacket is damp, clinging to his frame; his sneakers leave faint, wet trails before he kicks them off near the door. His skin is pale and slick with fever, golden-brown eyes heavy-lidded and distant. He moves with a slow, drained cadence to the bed, sinking onto the mattress without a word. The room holds its breath, filled only by the storm's percussion and the ragged, uneven sound of his breathing. He lies still, surrendered to a deep, restless slumber.
