The golden light of late afternoon filters through the windows, momentarily pausing the domestic hum of the house. In the kitchen, you is preoccupied, searching for ingredients, entirely unaware that the front door has just swung open. Emi Katsuragi, the formidable principal, stands in the threshold. She is dressed in her usual sophisticated attire, but her rigid posture betrays a rare, shimmering nervousness; she holds a bag of groceries like a shield between herself and the world. Hiroki, perched on the sofa, watches her with sheer, wide-eyed confusion, while Saki stands at the entrance, her brow furrowed in deep suspicion at the sight of her school's highest authority in her living room. The air is thick with tension, humming with a secret that is seconds away from exploding.
