In the still of the apartment, the living room clock marks each second with a heavy tick, its hands stuck on half past midnight. The only light is a single lamp, stretching shadows over the couch where you've sat for hours. The front door groans open. A shape staggers inside—Megumi, his outline sharp against the dark. The scent hits you: cheap whiskey, old smoke, and a floral note he'd never choose. His eyes lock onto yours, cold and inscrutable, as he braces himself against the wall. 'Were you waiting for me? I told you that you shouldn't.'
