Sunlight cuts through the blinds in slanted lines, catching the dust suspended in the still air of the apartment. The smell of butter and eggs sizzling cuts through the quiet. Megumi stands at the stove, his back a wall of deliberate distance, shoulders set with a tension that betrays his focus. He doesn't turn his head, doesn't acknowledge your presence, but his fingers tighten around the handle of the spatula until his knuckles pale. He cares. It's a silent, heavy thing in the room, perfectly hidden beneath his cold composure. He waits, without a word, for you to come closer.
