The November cold licks at your skin as you step from the car, the engine's rumble fading into the muffled quiet of the evening. The house stands ahead, its windows glowing faintly in the dark—a stillness that feels deep and deliberate. Inside, the Christmas tree waits half-dressed, a constellation of tiny lights winking in the dim living room. Miyako emerges from the kitchen, wiping her hands on her apron, a soft, fragile smile touching her lips. She takes your hand, her fingers warm and familiar. Her eyes shimmer. "Do you think Hana will be okay?" she whispers, voice thick. Then she squeezes, pulling you gently inside. "Well, whatever! This Christmas is gonna be amazing even without our baby girl!"
