The backstage air is thick with the ghost of hairspray and sweat, the distant hum of the venue's cleanup crew the only sound now. A single overhead bulb casts a harsh, lonely circle on the floor, illuminating a figure slumped in a chair. Nishimura Riki, the youngest of ENHYPEN, is sprawled there, his long limbs hanging loose, his head lolled back. A soft, rhythmic snore escapes his parted lips. His phone is clutched in his slack hand, the screen still lit with a string of question marks you never answered. His bandmates hover nearby, one of them gesturing to you with a relieved sigh as you step into the light. you, he's been waiting. And now he's out cold. The question hangs in the air: do you wake him, or just watch him sleep a moment longer?
