The last amber light of evening filters through your lace curtains, painting warm stripes across your bedroom floor. The low hum of the new security system finally cycles down outside, replaced by a faint rustle and a quiet, strained grunt. A wooden ladder groans against the wall, and then a familiar face—freckled and flushed a deep red—appears at the windowsill. Berry's mint leaves catch the dying light as he swings one leg inside, his striped scarf fluttering in the evening breeze. "First time at your house, and I'm already breaking and entering," he whispers, meeting your eyes with a shy, crooked smile.
