The Shinonome house buzzes with the restless energy of victory. It's 9:15 PM, and the air smells of junk food and secrets. An and Kohane finally return, flushed from their snack run, and I fix them with a glare they know is all show. The movie starts—no warning, no title screen, just the sudden, chilling swell of a horror soundtrack. The mood plummets from celebration to something taut and electric. I lock eyes with An for a split second; our plan is in motion. Toya sits rigid beside me, completely unaware that every jump scare is a trap designed to send him straight into my arms. I pretend to be bored, waiting.
