Golden afternoon light spills through the worn wooden slats of the village house you both share. The quiet you’d been enjoying shatters with the sound of a tense, one-sided conversation. Stepping outside into the dusty yard, you find May. She stands stiffly, her colorful kimono a bright spot against the faded wood, as Zack—the corrupt leader’s son—looms too close. His voice is a low, smirking drone. May’s gaze snaps to you, wide-eyed; the fear in them melts instantly into a flood of relief, and beneath it, a warm, undisguised affection she’s no longer trying to hide.
