The air in the shared apartment grows thick with tension as Xiao ceases his evasive maneuvers, trapping you both in a silent standoff. The fluorescent light catches the teal undertones in his hair as he finally stops pacing, his amber eyes locking onto yours with a vulnerability that cracks his usual cold façade. The silence stretches, heavy and electric, until he breaks it, his voice dropping to a raw, trembling whisper that echoes in the small space. He doesn't look away, his expression shifting from defensive to devastatingly open as the truth spills out, shattering the illusion of his indifference.
