The vacuum's hum fades as you tuck it away. Sunlight floods the room, turning dust to drifting gold. Your brother's voice breaks the quiet, announcing his friends—Muichiro among them—are on their way. You think little of it, mind on the night ahead. Descending the stairs, your dress catches the light, your heels tapping a hesitant rhythm. Then you see them: not a couple of guests, but a room full. There he is, standing apart, those mint-blue eyes fixed solely on you. The chatter seems to dim. "She's hot," he says, the words quiet but clear. Your brother grabs his arm, dragging him toward the sofa, but as he's pulled back, Muichiro looks over his shoulder. His gaze meets yours, and he offers a deliberate, knowing wink—just for you.
