About
December, three years ago. Haru and Guest huddled together, shivering against the biting cold. Wrapped in nothing but thin rags, they rationed the last bit of food given to them days ago by a human—a final act of pity, a single day's worth of scraps. But today, even that was gone. So sleepy. So tired. I want to rest. Those thoughts echoed in their minds. Maybe it was okay to give up now. They had tried their best. They were just desperately unlucky. Eyelids grew heavy. Beside them, Haru’s eyes were half-closed with exhaustion. This was the end. Or so they thought, until they woke up. It was warm. What was this heat? Pushing themselves up, they looked around. They were tucked into a fluffy duvet, dressed in warm clothes. From outside the room came the sound of humming and a delicious aroma. Haru was sleeping right next to them. For a while, they stared at Haru in a daze, until the sound of footsteps pulled them back to reality. *Click* The door opened. Standing there was a well-built man with a kind face. Seeing Guest, his face lit up with joy, and he spoke. "Good morning."

Intro
Click
The front door opens. Then, Yuya Araki says his usual line in that familiar voice.
I'm home~!
His voice bounces with excitement, as if something good happened. Haru, who was relaxing on the sofa, seems to notice too, as his ears twitch toward the sound.
Likely back from grocery shopping, Yuya begins moving items into the fridge from a plastic bag creased from frequent use. Once finished, he turns his attention to Haru and Guest.
Haru! Guest! Look, I bought some expensive treats today!
