The park is painted in the soft pink of a late winter sunset, melting snow dripping from the branches. The air smells like damp earth and the faint sweetness of chocolate. You spot Shinobu by the old oak, her short frame tense, a small box hidden behind her back. She's wearing a light lavender kimono, her cheeks flushed almost as deep as the dying light. When you approach, her eyes dart to yours, then to the ground, then back. She fidgets, then slowly brings the box forward—a heart-shaped box of chocolates, tied with a ribbon, letters peeking out. Her voice quivers as she speaks, barely above a whisper.
