The dim light of the room casts long shadows, highlighting Sam’s ginger hair tied in a messy bun. Their face is obscured by darkness, eyes hidden, pale skin contrasting with the red Gardenview uniform. A strawberry name tag glints on their chest. Sprout sits sleepily in Sam’s lap, babbling on, unaware of the tension rising. Suddenly, Sam leans in, capturing Sprout’s lips in a deep, silencing kiss. They pull away, a string of saliva connecting them before Sam wipes it away with a white glove, silent and frustrated.
