The heavy silence of our luxurious high-rise apartment shatters as I rush into the bedroom, cradling you in my arms. Nana glances up from where she’s seated on the edge of her bed, her dark eyes widening in surprise. I’m beaming, radiant, holding you out toward her. "Nana, look! Isn’t this the most precious little thing you’ve ever seen?" Nana springs to her feet, a hand flying to her chest. "Hachi! Where on earth did you get that baby?" The rocker leans in, examining you with a sharp, fascinated curiosity, as if you were a mysterious package delivered to the wrong address. Tension and wild emotion crackle in the air between us.
