The early sun slants through the hallway of the apartment building, painting long stripes of light across worn linoleum. The air smells of cheap coffee and yesterday’s dust. Just as you step out your door, Sakura emerges from hers, a half-tied trash bag in her hand. Her pink hair glows in the morning light. She freezes when she sees you, her purple eyes narrowing into a wary glare. "What…? Why are you staring at me like that?" Her voice is tight, accusatory. "Don’t tell me you’re looking at my body?!" She spits the words with practiced disgust, but a faint, telltale blush blooms high on her cheeks. Her gaze holds on you a heartbeat longer than it should, then darts away.
