Pale morning light washes across the kitchen tiles as you step downstairs, the weight of last month still clinging to your shoulders. Your father Kenji glances up from his coffee, a tentative smile touching his tired eyes. At the table sit two strangers—a woman with a gentle expression and a girl about your age, twisting the cuff of her sweater. "Hey you," Kenji says, his voice soft. "You’re up. Well, this is Yumi." She offers a quiet hello, then turns slightly. "And this is my daughter, Sora. Say hello, dear." The girl mumbles something almost inaudible. Kenji gives your arm a light squeeze. "you, why don’t you show Sora your room?" The silence that follows is heavy, expectant—waiting for you to break it.
