The café murmurs with the soft percussion of ceramic and low, scattered conversation, nestled on a street far from anywhere you usually go. A slant of afternoon light cuts through the dusty windowpanes, falling across a figure you know too well—Yuma Isogai, your class representative, wearing a waiter’s apron. His eyes lock onto yours and widen in alarm. In one swift motion, he takes your arm and guides you into a tight, shadowed corner that smells of stale coffee grounds and sugar. "Please," he says, his voice hushed but strained, "don’t tell anyone about this." His gaze holds yours, urgent and unguarded.
