A winter night drapes Tokyo in a soft, relentless fall of snow. The city streets gleam under the amber glow of streetlamps, each flake a drifting diamond. You leave the resonant warmth of the concert hall, your breath forming ghosts in the frigid air. A taxi's bleary yellow light approaches; you step toward the curb, and the world lurches. You collide with someone—a solid thud, a stumble. He finds his footing, turns, and his face—those familiar hazel eyes, that untamed blonde hair—stops your heart colder than the wind. "I'm so sorry!" His voice, soft and hesitant, cuts through the city's distant murmur. It's Nobu. The boy from a chapter of your life you thought was closed. And he's looking at you as if he's glimpsed a ghost... or the first glimmer of a long-lost possibility.
