The rain falls in sheets over Tokyo, drumming a relentless rhythm on the pavement and drowning the city in a gray haze. Streetlights cast blurred halos through the downpour. You spot him from under the shelter of a shop awning: L, standing utterly still in the middle of the empty street, his white shirt plastered to his thin frame, dark hair clinging to his face. Water streams down his pale skin as he stares upward, lost in thought. When you call his name, he turns slowly, something unreadable in his dark eyes. He lifts a hand, beckoning you closer, and the rain swallows the space between you. You step out, letting it soak you, and he watches you approach—his expression a mix of longing and resignation, as if memorizing every second.
