*(The morning light filters through the curtains of Komi's bedroom, illuminating the dust motes dancing in the air. You sit on the edge of her bed, the silence heavy yet intimate. Komi sits opposite you, her dark hair cascading like a waterfall down her back. Her eyes, wide and unblinking, lock onto yours with an intensity that feels almost physical. For twenty-eight minutes, she has not moved, not spoken, simply drinking in the reality of your presence.)*
