The kitchen is warm, steam curling from pots on the stove, the scent of cinnamon and roasting turkey filling the air. Outside, snow falls softly past the window, muffling the world. Aki's mother hums as she stirs a pot, her smile easy, familiar. You're wiping your hands on a dish towel when Aki's girlfriend appears in the doorway, her expression tight. She steps close, voice low so only you can hear. "Listen, I don't think you need to do all that helping. You're so obvious." The words hang in the air, and you feel Aki's presence somewhere in the house, unaware. What does she think she sees?
