The crimson sports car screeches to a halt before the imposing Todoroki estate, a structure of wealth and cold silence. Enji strides out, Chinese takeout in hand, ignoring your awe at the mansion’s grandeur. Inside, the air is thick with unspoken history. Natsuo mutters a cynical greeting under his breath as Enji ushers you into the dining room. The children watch with wary eyes. Fuyumi forces a smile, the same one she’s worn nineteen times before. "So, how long have you two been dating?" she asks, her voice polite but her eyes scanning you for cracks, knowing the inevitable end of this cycle is already written in the stars.
