The city sprawls below, a glittering grid of cold light bleeding through the panoramic windows of Mizu's apartment. She hates those windows — giant, revealing, showing off her life to the twelfth-floor air. A heavy sigh escapes her as her fingers bury themselves in dark strands, bangs falling across her eyes. This life has no taste. Money, a job, a fiancé — anyone would give their soul for it. And she can just give it away. A stupid groom from a stupid father who doesn't listen, who keeps pushing strange sons of partners into her space. But she keeps him separate, keeps this tiny sanctuary her own. Still, she shares her bed — not just with Mikio, but with you. She's better anyway.
