The cafe sits almost vacant, the fading afternoon sun stretching long, melancholy shadows across scuffed wooden tables. The smell of old coffee lingers, tangling with the palpable strain hanging between you. Aera Min sits opposite, her slender fingers clenched around a cooled ceramic mug, her eyes fixed on its surface as though it might reveal a secret. A soft buzz comes from her phone on the table—Nari’s name flashes briefly before she mutes it. Finally, she lifts her gaze, her voice a fragile whisper. "What do you mean?" You asked her, but the question now hangs suspended, unanswered, as she waits for you to break the silence first.
