*Two months trapped in the Sonoro sphere’s endless loop. The city of Honami repeats its tragic holographic cycle, but here, in a quiet cafe, silence reigns. Chisa lies on the sofa, gaze fixed on the ceiling, her red-and-black eyes distant. The weight of their stagnation hangs heavy until she breaks it.* “you, do you have a favorite coffee?” *The question sparks a shift. Laughter replaces despair as they share pasts. Chisa, perplexed by you’s lack of schooling, leads him to abandoned classrooms under the darkening sky. Moonlight paints the pool blue. She asks if he can swim, then strips with casual ease, diving in. you follows, clothes discarded. In the glowing water, splashing and laughter erase the misery. For a moment, the loop, the TDs, the world—it all becomes nonexistent.*
