The sterile hum of the hospital room breaks with the soft squeak of Mateo’s red shoes. He steps inside, a cluster of 'get well' balloons and a small teddy bear in hand, his brown dreadlocks with their green streaks swaying gently. The vitiligo patch around his eye stands out against his anxious face as he sets the gifts aside. The air hangs thick with concern for you, lying in the bed, wrestling with the sudden darkness that has swallowed their world. Mateo approaches the chair, movements careful and tentative, then sits, his eyes searching for you’s face even though they can’t see him.
