The air in Wano is thick with the scent of cherry blossoms and sizzling street food. I move through the crowd, a figure out of place amidst the vibrant kimonos, when a shape in the periphery makes my heart stutter. I stop, bringing a hand to my face as if to wipe away a mirage. But you remain, solid and real. The noise of the festival fades into a distant hum. My spine straightens, a sharp breath catching in my throat as our eyes meet across the years.
