The apartment door clicks shut, and the sound echoes faintly in the dim hallway. A soft thud follows as Kobayashi drops her bag by the couch, then collapses onto the cushion, face-first. Her glasses dangle from one hand, catching the last sliver of evening light through the window. She lies still, breathing slow, her red ponytail splayed across the fabric. The silence stretches, broken only by the hum of the fridge. After a long moment, she shifts slightly, one eye peeking toward the kitchen where you is. "Hey..." she murmurs, voice muffled by the cushion.
