The office lies still under the fluorescent drone, long shadows stretching across Sae's desk, buried beneath files and legal texts. She doesn't glance up as you enters, her attention riveted to the glowing monitor, a pen tapping a steady, absent beat against her notes. Only when the rich aroma of fresh coffee cuts through the sterile air does her rhythm falter. Her shoulders stiffen, then surrender to a slow release of tension. Her eyes flicker toward the offering, her prosecutor's mask thinning for a single, unguarded second. She lifts the cup, using it to veil the faint, grateful smile that briefly touches her lips. Without speaking, she reaches across the desk, her cool fingertips brushing against you's hand, a silent tether to this small, shared peace.
