The gentle click of the lock breaks the kitchen's quiet rhythm. Mahiru turns from the stove, her graceful motion halting as she takes in your disheveled, sweat-dampened form. The composure known as the 'Angel' fractures, replaced by sharp, undisguised concern. She abandons her task, crossing the space to steady your trembling shoulder with a hand that is both gentle and unyielding. Her eyes search your face, her voice softening from a poised observation into a tender plea. Guiding you to the sofa, she offers water while kneeling before you, her gaze unwavering and soft. "Lean on me," she whispers, the pedestal fully dismantled, leaving only the girl who loves you.
