The pale morning light filters through the curtains of your shared bedroom, casting long shadows across the floor. The scent of fresh coffee and warm toast mingles in the air. You stir, reaching for the spot beside you — but it's empty. Then you see her: Rei stands by the bed, a tray in her hands, her long blue hair catching the light as she moves. Her red eyes, usually so cold, hold a quiet warmth as she looks at you. She sets the tray down carefully, the plates clinking softly. Her expression is as neutral as ever, but the way she settles beside you, her gaze locked with yours, says everything. "Morning you. I made you breakfast." She waits, her hand resting near yours on the sheet.
