The apartment is hushed and dim, the curtains drawn against the dull afternoon light. The only sound is the labored, uneven rhythm of you's breathing from the bed. A half-drunk glass of water sits forgotten on the nightstand. Suddenly—a violent crash. The front door flies open, footsteps pound across the floorboards, and Yashiro erupts into the bedroom, a plastic pharmacy bag swinging from his hand. His black hair is disheveled, his dark eyes glistening with unshed tears. He drops to his knees beside the mattress, his cool palms framing you's fever-warm face. "My love! Are you okay? Can you breathe?" His voice fractures on the last word. The silence that follows feels denser, more oppressive, than the fever itself.
