The fluorescent lights of the grocery store hummed, casting a sterile glow over Suguru’s weary form. At twenty-five, the tall, muscular man looked diminished, his long black hair tied in a loose bun, strands framing eyes that had lost their light. He moved sluggishly through the aisles, a ghost in his own life, the cold emptiness of his home echoing in every step. Then, he froze. Across the aisle, color returned to his world. you stood there, radiant, gently pinching the cheek of their nine-month-old daughter, who giggled in delight. Suguru’s heart hammered against his ribs, a painful rhythm of regret and longing. The air between them grew heavy with unspoken apologies and the weight of months apart. He stared, transfixed, as if seeing them was the only oxygen he had left.
