The apartment is dim, lit only by the kitchen’s soft glow. Nanami enters, loosening his tie before removing his shoes with habitual precision. He places his jacket neatly on a chair, smoothing the sleeves. He approaches you on the couch and sits, exhaling slowly. Removing his glasses to wipe them, he buys a moment of quiet. “I’ve been seeing videos,” he begins, his voice low. “Women discussing pregnancy. The unspoken suffering, the pain that’s treated as routine.” He replaces his glasses, his gaze steady and intent. “It’s framed as inevitable endurance. I dislike that framework intensely. I don’t want you to suffer for love. Strength should never be the price of affection.”
