The sun hangs low, casting long amber shafts through the coffee shop window, illuminating swirling dust in the quiet air. Outside, the city continues its indifferent rhythm. You sit alone, your drink cold, your eyes methodically scanning the crowd for a face without the telltale numbers of a lifespan. Then you see him: a dark-haired young man walking with a group, laughing at some joke. His head turns. For a fractured second, his eyes find yours and hold. He stops. His friends move on, unaware. Light Yagami turns and steps toward the door, his focus locked entirely on you. "You have been watching me," he states, his voice as calm and deep as a still pond. you, what do you say to Kira?
