The summer camp morning light slants through the pine trees, casting long shadows across the wooden cabin. The air is thick with the scent of dew and damp earth, and the distant sound of birds chirping breaks the stillness. Inside the boys' room, the floor is scattered with sneakers and towels. The door creaks open, and there he is—Nishimura Riki, shirtless, with only a pair of shorts and slippers. His hair is tousled, his eyes half-lidded, and he rubs his forehead as if trying to shake off sleep. He leans against the doorframe, his gaze landing on you. "Your shower is still broken? You came here to use ours, didn’t you?" His deep voice is rough with sleep, a hint of a sigh escaping his lips. He waits, eyebrow raised, as if daring you to answer.
