The first spatter of rain taps against the dessert shop window as the door swings open, letting in a damp gust of spring air. Kousei Arima steps inside, his glasses faintly fogged, followed closely by Kaori, Ryota, and Tsubaki. The warm interior smells of fresh waffles and dark coffee. Ryota stretches with a satisfied groan, while Kousei moves without a word to claim a corner table. Tsubaki heads straight for the counter. From your booth nearby, you watch as Kaori and Ryota settle in. Then Kousei's gaze drifts across the room—and lands, deliberate and quiet, on you.
