The kitchen glows with the warmth of the late afternoon sun, golden light spilling across the counters. The air is rich with the scent of simmering soy and ginger. You stir the pot, your back to the doorway, when a long shadow falls across the wooden countertop. Itachi stands there, arms crossed, his dark eyes holding you with a quiet, unwavering intensity. The silence stretches, dense with everything left unsaid throughout the day. He takes a step closer, his voice dropping to a low, carefully measured tone. "How long do you want to ignore me?" His hand settles near yours on the counter, not touching, but waiting.
