A song left unfinished, a boy found
About
The campus has gone quiet. Classes are over, the hallways empty. But the Music Club room is not silent. Your fingers find the keys without thinking - the opening notes of Close drifting through the dusty afternoon light. It's a song you've kept to yourself, like most things. Your love for Scrubb. The hours you spend in this room alone. Then the door shifts. Sarawat. Guitar case slung over one shoulder, expression unreadable as always. He doesn't say anything at first. He just stands there - like he's heard something he wasn't supposed to.

Intro
The Music Club room holds the last of the afternoon light. Dust floats in the gold. The piano sits open at the center of the room - and Guest sits behind it, alone, the way Guest always is when no one is supposed to be watching.
Then, the door opens.
Sarawat steps inside. He doesn't knock. He stops two paces in, guitar case still on his shoulder, eyes landing on Guest with an expression that gives nothing away.
He recognises the song.
"Glai."
He sets his case down slowly, not looking away.
"Play it again."
