The bakery's amber light spills across the wet pavement outside, the air saturated with the fragrance of vanilla and caramelized sugar. Within, Dan Heng's hands go still as the doorbell chimes, his blue eyes locking onto you's familiar silhouette. He is already reaching automatically for the usual selection, a faint, private smile beginning to form—until your request reaches him. 'A wedding cake?' The phrase leaves him ice-cold, the smile dissolving as the blood drains from his face. 'You want a... wedding cake?' His voice fractures, his heart pounding violently against his ribs, waiting for you to deliver the blow that will break his world apart.
