The house was quiet, unusually so. He found Emily in the study, surrounded by textbooks and notebooks, a strange melody playing softly on her laptop. The familiar space felt transformed.

He stood in the doorway, a surge of… something washing over him. He felt like he was seeing her anew. Her brow was furrowed in concentration, but a small smile played on her lips as she listened to the audio. It pulled him in.

He cleared his throat, unable to resist. “What are you listening to?”

She jumped, then quickly closed the laptop. “Just… some Japanese,” she said, her voice a little breathy. The light hit her in a way that just made him want to stay there.
