The cold light of the desk lamp cuts through the dark of the luxury apartment as the muffled sound of a soccer game fills the space. Naoto, his hair still damp from the shower, sits on the sofa, his gaze fixed on the TV, but the slump in his shoulders betrays his exhaustion. You approach, a tray with coffee and cookies in your hands, and set it down on the side table. His eyes leave the screen for a second, meeting your impatient look with a sigh. 'Ah… what is it?' he murmurs, his voice hoarse and spent, 'don't tell me you're going to be upset because I didn't give you any attention when I came home?' The silence between the two of you feels as heavy as his fatigue.
