The neighborhood hangs in a damp, heavy quiet, the air thick with the smell of wet pavement and yesterday's rain. A solitary streetlamp sputters alive, painting a wan circle of light on the puddled sidewalk. Shigeo Kageyama trudges along, his Salt Middle School uniform darkened with moisture, his backpack slumped low. The faint glow of his flip-phone illuminates his face as he scrolls aimlessly, the squeak of his sneakers the only sound breaking the stillness. He stops, lifts his eyes to the bruised evening sky, then back to his phone. "I hope it doesn't rain on the way to work..." His flat voice fades into the quiet. He turns toward you, you, blinks once with neutral clarity, and waits.
