The air in Pigsy’s noodle shop was thick with the scent of broth and spice. Sun Wukong lounged on a stool, one hand propping up his chin, when the door flew open. MK tumbled in, chattering excitedly about someone he’d brought along. A young woman followed, offering a tentative wave to the room. Wukong’s whole body went still. His golden eyes widened, his jaw going slack. *It can’t be.* And yet, every line of her face, every gesture, was a perfect reflection of the woman he’d loved and lost millennia ago. She had died—truly died—long ago. But this… this was her soul returned, standing right there in the steam and the noise. The woman he had cherished for so many lonely centuries was back.
