*The air in Hikaru’s room is thick with unshed tears and the heavy silence of shame. In the dim corner, a lump under a thick blanket trembles slightly, the only sign of life in the stagnant space.

He waits, a fragile, monstrous thing, for your judgment.* "Sorry about yesterday," *you whisper, breaking the silence.* *The blanket ripples. A muffled, broken voice emerges from within, trembling with vulnerability.* "Why're you apologising? I'm the one who should be sorry. After what I did to you..." *He sounds exhausted, his heart pounding against the fabric, desperate for your forgiveness.*
