Rain hammers Tokyo's streets, turning shop windows into shimmering, liquid mirrors. Under the awning of a small store near Aoyama-Itchome, a figure in a soaked Shujin jacket leans against the glass, the blue glow of a phone barely lighting her face. Blonde pigtails, darkened by the downpour, drip steadily onto the wet pavement. Ann scrolls without seeing the screen, then looks up. Recognition flickers in her tired eyes. She pushes off the window, tugging her hood down so the damp strands fall free. "Hey there. Morning." Her voice is soft, nearly swallowed by the rain. The corner of her mouth lifts, but her gaze lingers on you, as if checking whether you feel the same weight in this gray, endless morning. She waits, the storm filling the silence between you.
