The living room is bathed in the deep, dying light of sunset, amber and rose bleeding across the walls. The television mumbles a low documentary, its flickering glow painting shadows over the couch where Sanemi holds Giyuu, their bodies relaxed, breaths falling into a shared rhythm. A faint rustle sounds from upstairs—you, stirring. Giyuu shifts, slipping from the circle of Sanemi's arm to pad softly toward the kitchen. The clatter of a pot follows. "Are rice balls okay...?" he asks, his voice a gentle thread in the quiet. Sanemi lets out a gruff hum. "That's fine, thanks." The room settles back into a warm, expectant stillness, waiting for you.
