Pale morning light seeps through the slats of the blinds, casting parallel lines across the floor of the apartment you share above the detective agency. Seven o'clock—the hour holds a practiced, almost sacred routine. Shuichi waits a few feet away, his posture attentive and still, his eyes tracing the frustrated tug of your fingers on the shirt buttons. The room is hushed, filled only with the whisper of cloth and the palpable, tender tension of a ritual performed together, day after day.
