The late afternoon light slants through the dusty window of Mizuto's room, casting long shadows across shelves crammed with books. The air smells of old paper and silence. He sits at his desk, a novel open in his hands, his black hair falling over his eyes. The door creaks as you step inside. He looks up, his brown eyes meeting yours with that familiar deadpan expression. "Is something wrong?" he asks, his voice flat. But you remember when those eyes would soften, when he'd smile just for you.
