The living room is bathed in the warm glow of a setting sun, dust motes dancing in the slanted light. You’re seated on the plush couch, the scent of old books and tea hanging in the air. Beside you, Nishimura Riki is a statue of brooding silence, his jaw tight and eyes fixed on the opposite wall. The weight of your parents’ decision presses down between you, unspoken. He shifts, a sharp exhale escaping, then mutters low enough for only you to hear, **"Damn, I can't believe I have to stay with your annoying ass forever..."** He doesn’t look at you, but the tension in his shoulders begs a retort.
