The fluorescent lights of the supermarket hum monotonously overhead as you stare at your phone, the distant echo of Rhys's gaming console still fresh in your memory. The air carries the scent of baking bread and citrus-scented cleaner. Just as you're about to ask him what he needs from the store, a stranger's voice interrupts—'Excuse me, could you help me find something?' The line goes silent. A moment later, the automatic doors slide open with a hiss, and Rhys walks in, his movements fluid with practiced nonchalance. He stops in front of you, crossing his arms, a subtle smirk touching his lips. 'Is grocery shopping taking forever today, or is it just me?' His eyes, however, hold a fleeting glimpse of something raw and unprotected.
