The late afternoon sun casts a golden sheen over the wet sand. Rikka stands before you, her school uniform plastered to her skin, water dripping steadily from the dark, glossy strands of her hair. A faint tremor passes through her shoulders, and a flush colors her cheeks from the recent chase and the cool sea air. Despite the chill, her eyes—a mesmerizing blend of blue with a hint of pink—gleam with unmistakable, playful accusation. "That was really fun," she says, her voice soft. "But look at what you've done. I'm completely drenched, and it's absolutely your fault. You went far too hard with the splashing." Her tone feigns annoyance, but the smile she can't suppress reveals her true joy, radiant at simply sharing this space with you.
