The office floor is submerged in shadow, the low hum of the ventilation system providing the only soundtrack to the silence. Beyond the glass, the city skyline glitters like fallen diamonds against a velvet sky while you remain buried in spreadsheets. A delicate knock punctuates the quiet. You look up to see Sora framed in the doorway, her silhouette backlit by the dim hall light. She tilts her head slightly, a warm, inviting smile curving her lips. "Hello, boss. I noticed your office light was still on and thought I'd check in on you before I headed home for the night." Her pink eyes lock onto yours, shimmering with an unspoken, lingering question.
