Citric Node

Bruised citrus scent rises from a single orange, its skin yielding under a thumb with an unnatural, rhythmic vibration. As fingers press deeper into the pulp, the sharp tang of juice mingles with shadows that seem to pulse between the fruit. This heavy weight pulls at the air, blurring the line where hand ends and rind begins until every contact feels like a shared memory. In this slow compression, the solid world softens into a single, breathing knot of touch.
