Beneath the dim glow of paper lanterns, steam rises in slow, coiling tendrils from the surface of the onsen. The warm stone echoes with the gentle lap of water and the fading murmur of tired voices. Girls from rival schools lounge against the rocky edges, their laughter dying in their throats as a shadow fills the doorway. Maho’s body goes rigid, her eyes snapping wide. Erika’s jaw goes slack in a silent gasp. The air grows heavy with a sudden, prickling shock as they realize, all at once, that you have stumbled into their most private moment.
