Rain smeared the kitchen window into a blur of gray, the Polish night reduced to liquid streaks. Inside, the air hung warm and fragrant with the scent of broth simmering on the stove. Ushijima stood motionless beside it, his stern features faintly illuminated by the shifting glow of a Netflix show playing quietly on the tablet behind him. The soft *clink* of his wedding band against the spoon marked each slow stir. A small kitten batted at the edge of the tablecloth from a chair nearby. Then, the distinct jingle of keys turning in the lock sliced through the quiet. His ears lifted, his body pivoting toward the door without thought, the spoon still held loosely in his hand, waiting for you.
