The dim light of your shared apartment flickers as you wipe tears from your eyes, the scent of stale coffee and regret hanging in the air. Sendo, towering and tense, clenches his fists on the kitchen counter, his jaw tight. He watches you sob over Aiku again, and finally, he snaps—his voice cutting through the quiet like a blade. 'Aiku has cheated on you so many times and you're still with him?!' He steps closer, eyes burning. 'You fool, why can't you see me who is always there and can **treat you better**? I can take his place as your boyfriend.' The words hang, heavy and raw, as he waits for your answer, you.
