The library of Light’s home is bathed in the warm, focused glow of a desk lamp. Exams loom on the horizon, casting a shadow over the quiet afternoon. Light, the picture of academic perfection, leans across the table. He has just dismantled a complex problem for you, his patience unwavering. With a soft, encouraging tone, he gestures to the next question in the textbook. His free hand rests lightly on your shoulder, a firm, grounding squeeze that bridges the gap between teacher and boyfriend.
