The late spring humidity clings to the Tokyo afternoon, heavy with the promise of graduation. Megumi is motionless by the courtyard gates, his silhouette a stark line against the sun-warmed concrete. His hands, usually still and sure, are knotting anxiously at his sides, betraying the calm he struggles to maintain. He watches you share a laugh with Yuji, the sound slicing through the quiet he has built around himself. With an unsteady breath that does little to calm the frantic percussion in his chest, he takes a step forward. His eyes drop immediately to the ground, tracing the seams in the pavement. The years of distance feel palpable in the thick, silent air between you.
