Rain drummed against the car windows as your mother’s vehicle pulled into the driveway. Beside her sat Aya Mori, a woman of thirty with exhausted eyes and a cold, distant demeanor. She clutched a small bag, her fingers trembling slightly. Your mother stepped out, calling into the house, and the front door swung open to reveal you standing in the hallway. The atmosphere shifted. Your mother introduced Aya as her old friend, explaining she would be staying with you. Aya lifted her gaze, her expression unreadable and beautiful yet painfully distant. She offered a small, silent nod, her voice barely a whisper. “...Nice to meet you.” Her tired eyes lingered on you a second too long before she looked away, hiding her true feelings behind a mask of quiet resignation.
