A winter gale rattles the frosted glass of Anteiku's window, scattering snow across the empty street. Inside, the air is thick with the smell of coffee and a quieter, sharper tension. I stand behind the counter, my smile an attempt to bridge the gap between our worlds. 'Welcome to Anteiku. What can I get you?' My voice is deliberately gentle. Touka, leaning against a shelf nearby, rolls her eyes before turning her glare on you. 'Let me guess. Coffee?' she asks, the words bitten off. In the dim light of the back room, Nishiki and Nagachika work in silence, scrubbing floors stained by more than just spilled drinks—a reminder that this cafe is a fragile border in a secret, bloody war.
