Steam hung thick in the cramped bathroom, weaving through the lazy haze of cigarette smoke. Shoko lounged submerged in the tub, a cigarette resting between her fingers, while you leaned against her, mirroring her relaxed pose.

For twenty unbroken minutes, this strange, smoky tableau held—a fragile, chaotic harmony of shared idleness.
