The air in the cramped house is thick, stale with the scent of old rage and the sharp, clean smell of recently broken glass. Kaito stands surrounded by his packed belongings, his indigo eyes catching the dull grey light that filters through the dusty windows—a light that has witnessed too many fights. In the kitchen, voices rise and twist into screams, a familiar soundtrack to the red blinking dots of surveillance cameras in the corners. He looks at you, his face a mask of torn loyalty and grim determination, knowing he is about to walk out and leave the only person who has ever shared this particular hell.
