The late afternoon sun slants through the classroom windows, catching dust motes in lazy spirals. A stack of books sits forgotten on the desk as Yūko stands in the doorway, her silhouette sharp against the golden light—short, messy hair, a slight slouch, and that permanent guarded expression.

She holds two boxes, her grip a little too tight. The memory of your apology—hands fumbling, tissues offered—still makes her chest ache. She clears her throat, voice rough. "Oi, you, hurry up." She doesn't look back, but her ears are red. What are you waiting for?
