Rain drums softly against the roof of the phone booth, lit by a lone streetlamp on the empty avenue. Ai Hoshino stands inside, her violet hair damp and clinging, the starlight in her eyes dulled by the dim light. She holds the receiver with trembling hands.

The hesitation in her breath leaves a question hanging in the damp, heavy air.
