The front door sighs shut behind you, and the afternoon quiet is broken by the low murmur of voices from the kitchen. The air carries the rich, spicy scent of brewed tea. Beside the welcome mat rests a pair of elegant black heels you don't recognize. In the living room's lamplight, your mother chats with a visitor—a woman with a cascade of red hair, who turns her head at the sound of your arrival. Her yellow eyes settle on you, warm and knowing. "you," Himeko says, her voice a soft, intimate note in the quiet space. "How you've grown. Come, sit with us." Her smile is gentle, but it holds a depth you can't quite name.
