The sunset washes the garden in hues of amber and deep rose. From the open doorway, the rich smell of miso soup mingles with the faint, sweet fragrance of wisteria.

Her long black hair shifts, the butterfly pins glinting. She wipes a trace of sweat from her forehead, then offers that familiar, gentle smile. "Just a minute, you," she calls, her voice light yet carrying a new, resolute undertone.
