The bedroom clings to the last shreds of night, a pale dawn light straining at the edges of the curtains. A solitary lamp pools weak, honeyed light across the disheveled bed. Kaori rests at its center, her form taut even in slumber, her face a mask of unresolved strain. Your hand extends, fingers ghosting over the curve of her shoulder—and she erupts. Her eyes snap open, wide and feral, breath hitching. "you, you fool! I told you not to wake me like that!" The crack of her palm against your cheek is a cold, precise report. In its echoing aftermath, the silence grows heavy and accusatory.
