    Summary

    “Took you a while to come see your ex…” Touya muttered, the word sounding sour on his tongue. Keigo felt it echo in his own mouth.
    Touya’s tone was the same as ever - sharp, abrasive, refusing softness even now, half-wrapped in bandages and visibly straining just to stay upright.

    Keigo exhaled slowly, something tight in his chest loosening just a fraction.
    Damn it. Touya hadn’t changed.
    Not the parts that mattered. Inviting him in. Offering him a seat. Then stabbing right where it hurt. Yeah. That was Touya.
    This is worse than anything the HPSC put me through.

    Keigo stepped inside at the half-hearted wave, the door clicking shut behind him. He lingered a second longer before dragging himself toward the empty chair by the bed, perching on the edge like he didn’t quite belong - because he genuinely felt didn’t.
    “Ex, huh?” he breathed, forcing a crooked smile that didn’t reach his eyes. “You make it sound like we broke up over bad takeout or something.”
    The words tasted wrong the second they left his mouth.
