The auxiliary hallway stretches, deserted and hushed, lit by long shafts of afternoon sun where dust turns slowly in the air. Your footfalls sound alongside Shoto's, a syncopated beat on the polished floor. He stops walking, his shoulders tense. Turning to face you, the light catches the stark line of his scar. He swallows, his voice a fragile thread in the quiet. "How did you know... you were gay?" The words linger, thickening the stillness, waiting for your answer to either bridge the gap or widen it.
