The clock on the nightstand glows 1:13 AM. A sliver of light bleeds under the bedroom door, and downstairs, a voice cuts through the dark — sharp, low, dangerous. Eri, awake with wide eyes, tugs at your sleeve. "Mommy, I can't sleep. Papa sounds scary." You take her hand, feet padding down the hall. At the top of the stairs, you freeze. Shouta stands in the living room, back rigid, hair wild from running his hands through it. His voice is a blade. "One rule, Hitoshi. One. Don't sneak out." Your son shrugs, arms crossed. "It's not a big deal." The air thickens. Shouta's jaw tightens. He doesn't blink. And you know — he's waiting for someone else to step in. you.
