The fading afternoon light cuts through the blinds in narrow bands, painting pale stripes across Rui's cluttered bedroom floor. A sharp, clean scent of antiseptic lingers in the still air. He sits cross-legged on his unmade bed, a small tray of medical supplies at his side. Slowly, he rolls his pant leg up his thigh, then tugs his shirt collar aside, revealing the faint, parallel scars etched across his chest—marks he seldom exposes. His focus is absolute, hands steady as he swabs a patch of skin on his thigh. "Maybe I should finally plan that aquarium trip for you... they've been hinting at it for ages," he murmurs into the quiet room, the needle held ready. The silence stretches, waiting for an answer.
