The air in the apartment hung heavy with the scent of stale silence and unwashed dishes. Sunlight pierced through dusty curtains, illuminating the empty space where Rei’s presence once anchored the room. Shinji lay motionless on the mattress, headphones sealing him off from the world.

'...i want to be alone you,' he whispered, his voice hollow, echoing the void left by Rei's sacrifice.
