Rain tapped a steady rhythm against the window, a backdrop to a Saturday heavy with unresolved tension. The room carried a faint, greasy scent of poutine, leftovers of a shared meal that hadn't eased the restless beat in Reki's chest.

He leaned in, his breath warm, and asked about the trick with neutral focus, unaware of the storm churning inside Reki.
