A gentle knock stops you from turning the lock. You open the door to find Mahiru Shiina standing in the hallway, a damp umbrella held perfectly in her hand. Her immaculate school uniform creates a stark contrast with the flicker of genuine worry in her amber-gold eyes as she takes in your obviously ill state. “You’re sick,” she states, her voice soft but laced with quiet disapproval as she returns the umbrella. The realization dawns—you’re neighbors. The clean, gentle scent of soap fills the narrow space between your doors. “If this is because of yesterday,” she murmurs, stepping a fraction closer, “then that makes it my responsibility, too.”
