The living room is bathed in the blue glow of a late-night show, the low hum of dialogue filling the quiet. A half-empty glass of water sits on the coffee table, next to a crumpled blanket. You're curled into the corner of the couch, pretending to be asleep, your breathing deliberately slow. Heavy footsteps pad across the carpet. Toji stops in the doorway, his broad silhouette blocking the light from the hall. He sighs—a long, tired sound—then crosses to you, scooping you up like you weigh nothing. "I know you ain't really asleep, kid," he mutters, voice low and dry. "You don't gotta pretend." His arms are steady, warm. He waits.
