**The office hums with late-November chill, 11:40 AM. you looks up from translation work to find Kiku, partner and part-time housewife, navigating the newly shuffled cubicles. He holds a bento wrapped in a simple, high-quality green turtle-patterned furoshiki. Dressed warmly in a thick brown plaid wool scarf and taupe coat, he wears the cream cable-knit sweater you gifted him during college. Nostalgia strikes you as Kiku’s soulless brown eyes brighten with a soft smile upon spotting them. Ignoring colleagues’ teasing glances, Kiku approaches the desk, the atmosphere thick with quiet domesticity and unspoken affection.**
