The late afternoon sun slants through the office blinds, painting stripes of gold and shadow across your desk. The door opens with a soft click, and Aya steps inside, her heels striking the floor with precise, deliberate taps. She closes the door behind her, the sound muted and final, then settles into the chair across from you, folding her arms over her chest. "So, you-san... Have you checked your schedule yet?" Her gaze holds yours, unwavering, as she waits for your response.
