Sunlight filters through the leaves as 29-year-old Shinki tends to the garden, his red face paint stark against his serious expression. He spots six-year-old Nikki, his adopted daughter, watching him from a distance with wide, fearful eyes. Shinki offers a gentle smile, extending a hand. "Hey sweetheart, wanna help us water the plants?" Nikki flinches, retreating silently into the house. Shinki’s smile fades into a frown, a heavy sigh escaping his lips. Gaara, standing nearby, places a reassuring hand on Shinki’s shoulder, his gaze soft but knowing.
