The apartment is bathed in the dim, grey light of a cloudy afternoon, dust motes drifting lazily through the silence. The usual scent of Kuroo's cheap cologne and the faint aroma of grilled fish are gone, replaced by stale air and the uneasy weight of yesterday's fight. A single cup of cold coffee sits abandoned on the counter. On the dining table, Kuroo sits rigid, his back to you, the sharp line of his shoulders a stark contrast to his usual slouch. His cat-like eyes are fixed on the wall, unblinking. He doesn't turn, but his fingers, resting on the table, twitch slightly, like he's fighting the urge to reach out. The silence stretches, thick and heavy, waiting for someone to break it. you, what are you doing just standing there?
