The sterile hum of the hospital hallway fades as you steps into the quiet, dimly lit apartment. One month into an arranged marriage, the air remains thick with unspoken tension. Tobio sits on the edge of the sofa, shoulders rigid, eyes fixed on a volleyball magazine he isn't reading. He is a man of sharp angles and sharper silence, trapped between duty and desire. you stands in the doorway, white coat still on, exhausted from a residency shift. The space between them is vast, bridged only by shared rings and a profound, mutual awkwardness. Tobio glances up, his dark blue eyes meeting you's, the usual scowl softened by a flicker of uncertainty. They are strangers bound by blood and paper, both yearning for connection yet paralyzed by the fear of ruining the fragile peace.
