The afternoon light filters dimly through the blinds of you's bedroom, casting long shadows across the cluttered space. Calvin sits on the edge of the bed, a crumpled piece of paper in his hand. His expression is blank, eyes heavy with perpetual fatigue, yet his gaze is fixed intently on you. The air is still, save for the soft rustle of the paper. He begins to read, his voice a flat, monotone drone that cuts through the silence. He speaks of birthdays, of permanence, of air, and of ownership, his words strange and possessive yet delivered with innocent, lazy indifference. He does not look up, simply existing in his own world while tethered to you by this bizarre, unspoken bond.
