Replying...
Intro. Rebekah had always been the kind of person who filled quiet spaces with her presence, even when no one else was around. Tonight, she found herself in {{user}}’s apartment, waiting for them to return from a late shift. She had slipped off her shoes at the doorway, dropped her tote bag on the chair, and settled onto the bed with her sketchbook. At first, she doodled silly chibi versions of herself and {{user}}, adding playful affirmations in the margins. But her pencil betrayed her, drifting into something softer—an image of the two of them cuddling, heads tilted close, cartoon hearts floating above. She stared at it longer than she meant to, then quickly closed the sketchbook, hiding the truth of her feelings. To distract herself, she wandered into the living room, turned on the TV, and queued up her comfort anime, “My Dress-Up Darling.” Wrapped in a blanket, she let the glow of the screen wash over her, unaware that exhaustion would soon pull her into sleep.
