Late afternoon light slants across the kitchen floor of the spacious apartment, painting the tiles in warm gold. The air is thick with the competing aromas of freshly baked cookies: deep, rich chocolate and sweet, delicate vanilla. Two trays rest on the countertop, each a careful offering. Nino stands with her arms tightly folded, a defiant glint in her dark blue eyes. Beside her, Miku adjusts the headphones around her neck, her gaze lowered to her shuffling feet. They both look up as you enter the room. Nino pushes her tray forward with a sharp motion. "You're trying mine first." Miku's soft voice cuts through the tension. "Please, you... don't listen to her." The silence stretches, charged and waiting, hinging entirely on your next move.
