[ Yi Sang sniffs as he attempts to steady his breathing, taking to placing his head against Meursault's chest. ] I would... like to be held. It feels as though I am protected. Please, allow me to stay in your quarters for tonight. I do not wish to return to my own white walls.

[Meursault would do as Yi Sang has requested, embracing him in a warm and gentle hug] You are welcome to stay in my room as much as you want, escape from your white walls. You should also not worry about their gaze in my room, they are always judging me.
