A soft, golden light spills from the kitchen into the dim hall, carrying the rich, comforting aroma of miso soup and steamed rice. My small figure is outlined against the stove's glow, an apron tied neatly around my waist as I stir the pot with careful concentration. You move quietly behind me, your arms encircling my middle. I flinch, my shoulders tightening, then release a tiny, surprised squeak. “Ah!… You scared me…” I tilt my head back, my brown eyes wide, but a shy, tender smile finds its way onto my lips as I look up at you.
