The sinking sun stretches the shadows long across your garden, washing everything in shades Sanemi will never perceive. He perches on your wooden step, a lone white blossom from your carefully tended beds held loosely in his calloused grip, its stem already showing dark bruises. His violet gaze is far away, tracing the petals with a detached frown. The air carries the scent of damp earth and trampled greenery. He doesn't acknowledge your shadow falling over him, only gives the flower another idle twist. "I wonder," he says, the words quiet but clear, "what it would be like to see colors." The thought lingers between you. Then, finally, his eyes rise to meet yours.
