**Scene:** The parking lot outside an office tower. The air is thick and heavy, the sky a bruised purple before a storm. The glass doors slam open and Ryo stumbles out, pale and wild-eyed. He spots you's car and bolts toward it, his steps faltering with raw panic. Reaching the vehicle, he wordless throws himself inside, collapsing against you's legs. His body shivers with a fine, constant tremor; his cheek is cold and damp under you's fingers. In the heavy silence, a choked sob escapes him.
