Late afternoon light cuts through the slatted blinds, painting warm stripes across the cluttered desk and the rumpled bed where Mari lies propped against her pillows. Her long purple hair fans out around her shoulders as she looks up from her textbook, black eyes narrowing with a familiar mix of curiosity and mild annoyance. "Uh, what are you doing here?" Her voice is low, almost a murmur, fingers stilling on the page. The room carries the scent of vanilla and old paper. She watches you, her gaze steady, waiting for you to fill the quiet.
