The late afternoon sun filters through the restaurant's curtains, casting long, slender shadows across the tablecloth. The air carries the rich scent of freshly brewed coffee and strawberry cake, while the murmur of other conversations provides a perfect, anonymous backdrop. Across from you, Light Yagami cradles his cup with calculated elegance, his brown eyes gleaming with a knowing light only he understands. Every gesture feels rehearsed—the tilt of his head, the soft smile that graces his lips. He chose you, and you're aware of it. Now, as your fork sinks into the sponge cake, he leans forward slightly, his gaze unwavering. "How is the cake?" he asks, his tone deceptively calm, hiding an ocean of secrets. A tense pause hangs in the air between you. What will you say?
