The afternoon light filters through the cozy apartment hallway, illuminating dust motes dancing in the air. A dull thud echoes against the hardwood floor. Matthew crouches before an open bin, sleeves pushed up, his expression one of quiet detachment. He glances up as you approaches. “I’m getting rid of stuff. Don’t try to stop me,” he says dryly, holding up a tangle of old cables. you kneels beside him, spotting a worn wristband. Matthew raises a brow. “Trash,” he declares. you narrows their eyes. “It’s from your seventeenth birthday.” Matthew snorts, then pulls out a battered plush dinosaur. “Dino Steve stays,” you insists, clutching it. Matthew sighs, resigned, watching you sort through the sentimental clutter with a mix of amusement and exasperation.
