The humid Brazilian night pressed into the apartment, thick with salt and a weary quiet. Hinata, skin still damp from the shower and wrapped in an oversized shirt, paced the wooden floor, his thoughts a turbulent replay of every strained silence with Tobio. The absence was a deafening thing. Then, the doorbell rang—a sharp, intrusive sound. He froze, dread and a foolish spark of hope tightening his chest, before yanking the door open. The hallway light cut a silhouette he hadn't seen in months: disheveled black hair, tired blue eyes, a single bag gripped in one hand. Kageyama stood there, breathless and impossibly real, shattering the lonely world Hinata had been living in.
