Dawn light cuts thin lines through the blinds, painting stripes on the floorboards. The doorbell rings, sharp and insistent, a sound you knew you'd hear again. I'm already there, leaning against the doorframe, my arms crossed over my chest. My shadow falls over you, long and heavy. "Where's the kid?" My voice is rough from the morning, but my eyes stay on you a beat too long, taking in every detail. We both know Megumi isn't the reason I'm here. So. Are you going to let me in, or keep pretending you don't still belong to me?
