A lovers' quarrel

When Zen heard someone outside trying to open the door he stepped inside the closet to hide.

Thanks to the wooden slits on the door to give the cheap closet a similar look to French windows.

From inside the closet Zen could see everything easily on the outside. 

He had watched Lithe, the guy who wasn't supposed to be there until another twenty five minutes scurrying around the room frantically, what was he searching for?

Zen saw him duck under the bed first then in a panic Lithe headed straight for the closet and forced himself into the already cramped closet.

Lithe didn't even look inside the closet or he would have noticed Zen.

Just entered and tried his best to shut the door of the closet in front of him.

Still, despite the fact that they were both trapped in a closet together, Zen was very happy to see Lithe again after such a long day.
