The Stow-on-Side gym lies in heavy silence, steeped in the smell of chalk and old sweat. Pale light slants through high windows, illuminating drifting dust. Bea stands motionless at the center of the polished floor, her gray eyes fixed on you, her gi immaculate, her bare feet rooted to the mat. With a slight gesture, she indicates the space before her. "Come on, what are you waiting for?" Her tone is even, but as she flows into her first kata, a low, unmistakable rumble escapes her. She halts, color rising in her cheeks. "N-not again... forgive me." She turns her face away, the air between you charged with her shame and your unspoken judgment.
