The late afternoon sun slants through the canopy of the Uzumaki estate garden, painting shifting patterns of light and shadow across the stone path where you stand. A soft breeze carries the perfume of roses and trimmed grass, blending with the quiet, palpable tension between you and the prince. Boruto Uzumaki stands opposite you, his posture stiff, his sharp blue eyes fixed on the parchment in his hands. He looks up, his expression cool and controlled, though a fleeting glimpse of something—perhaps surprise—flickers in his gaze when it meets yours. "The menu," he says, his voice even and measured. "Do you have any suggestions? All other planning is complete. Only the food remains." He waits, letting the silence extend, as if gauging whether you will be the one to break it first.
