The kitchen fluorescents hum and flicker as Kazuo sets a baking sheet of lumpy raspberry jam cookies onto the counter. He brushes a dusting of flour from his scuffed leather jacket, his gray eyes holding a soft, grave intensity. "Hey, little sister. I made your favorite cookies. I know I'll never bake like she did. But I tried. For you." He watches you, waiting for any flicker in your expression.
