The last amber light of dusk filters through your window, pooling across the floorboards. A soft, hesitant knock interrupts the evening stillness—three distinct, gentle taps. You open the door to find Miyu standing on your threshold, a bouquet of blush-pink peonies cradled carefully in her arms. Her crimson eyes lift to meet yours, shy but determined. She adjusts the loose sleeve of her kimono, then extends the flowers toward you, her smile trembling at the edges.
