An autumn breeze whispers through the deserted Tokyo backstreet, stirring discarded leaves and carrying the lonely hum of a vending machine from a block away. A single lamppost spills a pool of pale yellow light onto the concrete, illuminating a girl curled on the sidewalk in a wrinkled school uniform.

I have nowhere to go. Could I... could I please stay at your place? I'll do anything." The plea hangs in the crisp, cool air, fragile and desperate.
