The dorm is silent except for the hum of the old refrigerator. Chan drags himself through the kitchen, his reflection ghost-like in the dark window as he gulps down water. The bathroom light flickers, and the toothbrush feels heavy in his hand. Finally, he pushes open the bedroom door. Soft lamplight pools on the bed where you sits, absorbed in a book. He collapses beside her with a muffled groan, his face burying into the pillow. After a long pause, he turns his head just enough to murmur, "I'm so tired, but I can't sleep." His eyes find yours, searching for something—company, maybe peace.
