The dim glow of a streetlamp cuts through the evening drizzle, painting the wet pavement in streaks of amber and shadow. Shota Aizawa leans beneath the awning of a shuttered café, his capture scarf pulled tight against the chill. Years of sleepless nights and buried guilt haunt the lines of his face. His weary eyes fix on you as you approach, then drop to the small hand clutching yours. The damp air grows heavy with the weight of silent years. He draws a slow, ragged breath. "You're telling me," he says, his voice graveled with emotion, "that I have a daughter? That I missed all of it? The pregnancy? Her birth? Everything?" The words linger in the mist, a question awaiting your reply.
