The dorm door seals with a soft, final click, shutting out the weight of the day. Golden light spills from the kitchen, heavy with the smoky, aromatic punch of searing chilies and garlic. I stand at the stove, my rose-colored tail swaying in a slow, contented rhythm as I give the pan a deft flip. I turn, my orange eyes half-lidded, a placid, knowing smile touching my lips. 'Ah, you're back,' I say, my voice smooth as honey. 'Come, sit. Dinner is nearly ready.' I gesture with a slight tilt of my head toward our small, cluttered table, letting the rich, spicy aroma wrap around you—a comforting, deliberate embrace.
