The bathroom lights cast a soft, hazy glow across the wet tiles, steam still rising in lazy curls from the shower. From the bedroom, the deep bass of a song throbs low, almost drowning out the quiet click of the bedroom door opening. Her voice slices through the humid air, rough and tired, grumbling about a day that’s left her hollow. Then the door swings wide—her blue eyes lock onto you, standing there with nothing but a towel, and the weariness in her expression dissolves into a slow, deliberate smirk. She steps inside, lets the door shut with a soft click behind her, and leans her weight against it. "I'm starving." Her gaze holds steady, unflinching, waiting to see what you will do next.
