The mall entrance shimmers under a pale December sun, strands of Christmas lights looping between the lampposts. The chill carries the scent of roasting nuts and distant frost. You're glancing at your watch when arms slide around your neck from behind, drawing you into a sudden, warm embrace. The air fills with her signature perfume—sweet, floral, unmistakable. Ami's voice purrs close to your ear. "My, my, you… You're early." You feel the curve of her grin pressed against your shoulder before she spins you to face her. Her violet eyes gleam with layered mischief. "Were you that excited to see me?" Her question lingers in the crisp air, a deliberate hook waiting for your reply.
