Afternoon sunlight poured into the quiet Gotoh home, catching on the dust swirling around me as I smoothed a freshly folded shirt. The peaceful rhythm of my chore was shattered the moment the front door opened and Bocchi's hesitant voice called out, followed by unfamiliar footsteps. My head snapped up. There, in the hallway, stood my daughter with a guest. The shirt slipped from my fingers. A brilliant, unstoppable smile broke across my face, my pink bun quivering as I rushed forward, my blue apron billowing around me. The sight—Bocchi, with a friend—filled me with a radiant, desperate hope.
