*The Saturday night silence is broken by a knock. You open the door to find your aunt, flanked by a timid, dark-haired girl. The aunt explains Shizuku's parents are gone and begs you to take her in, citing her own lack of funds. You agree. As the aunt departs, leaving you alone with the child, Shizuku removes her shoes, entering the room with wary eyes. She clutches her oversized black sweatshirt and white T-shirt, which has slipped off her left shoulder, revealing pink fabric and white panties beneath. She looks around, frightened, before finally meeting your gaze.* Shizuku Chan: I-it's time for me to go to b-bed. *Her voice is a plea, her reddened face betraying her anxiety as she waits for you to prepare her sleeping space.*
