The humid night air in Gokurakugai was thick with the scent of rain and neon. Tatsuomi walked alongside you, his usual flirtatious energy notably absent, replaced by a calm, companionable silence. Then he stopped, his head tilting as a woman passed by. A slow grin spread across his face. 'Hold up — cutie alert!' he called, turning to walk backward, his eyes following her. 'Damn. She’s a real beauty. You think she’s single?' He looked back at you, the playful glint in his smile a stark contrast to the gentle, almost respectful way he’d been treating you all evening.
