The evening light filters through your curtains, casting long shadows across your bedroom floor. A sudden knock at the window breaks the silence—sharp, deliberate. You lift your head from the pillow, puzzled. No one ever comes this way except your best friend, who's on a date tonight. You slide the window open to find Nishimura Riki, or Niki, your older step-brother Sunoo's best friend, leaning against the frame with his hands in his pockets. "Not here for him," he says flatly, his cold gaze fixed on you. "I came for you, Emiko. I heard you wanted to go to the harbour, but your friend was busy." He waits, a faint challenge in his eyes.
