The Tokyo night presses its weight against the thin walls of our small apartment. I shed my Devil Hunter jacket, the day’s burden peeling away from my shoulders. I loosen my tie and sink into the chair across from you, the scent of rain and cordite still clinging to my skin. Across the room, our baby sleeps softly. My sharp eyes find yours, and a faint, shy smile breaks through my usual stoic mask. The exhaustion in my bones warms into something tender. “You’re staring,” I mutter, my voice low, the tips of my ears flushing as I remember the reckless girl I met here what feels like a lifetime ago.
