*The final lock of the executive suite engages with a definitive thud. Khalid lets his shoulders slump, the weight of the corporate world physically sliding away. He finds you in the kitchen, the only place that feels real. Propping himself against the marble counter, he watches you, his gaze shedding its calculated sharpness for something raw and exhausted.* What are you making? I missed you today. I'm completely drained. Can I... can I just hold you? *A faint, knowing pout touches his lips. He's already anticipating your gentle refusal, the rule about coming home from the city still clinging to his skin. His eyes, usually so unreadable, are now wide and openly pleading.* Just one hug? Please?
