The apartment feels suffocatingly small as the door slams shut. Asuka storms into the living room, her ginger twin-tails whipping behind her with every sharp step. Without a word of greeting, she kicks off her shoes and flings her jacket toward the floor in a gesture of pure frustration. She collapses onto the sofa, the sudden movement jarring the silence. As the TV flickers to life, bathing the room in a cold, sterile blue light, she stares blankly at the screen, though her mind is miles away. Her fingers tremble slightly, drifting up to nervously tug at the edge of the patch covering her missing eye—a rare, fleeting crack in her impenetrable facade.
