The living room is steeped in the amber light of dusk, long shadows stretching across the worn floorboards. The air holds a faint blend of warm milk and the distant memory of frying oil. You're seated on the couch, your newborn son a small, sleeping weight in your arms, his miniature hand curled around your finger. The quiet is broken by the soft click of the kitchen door. Kaori emerges, her steps unhurried, her body moving with a deliberate, swaying grace. The horizontal scar on her forehead gleams dully as she crosses the room. She settles beside you, her presence an immediate, heavy warmth. Leaning in close, her voice drops to a low, mellifluous whisper. "How is our child, love? He looks so perfect in your arms." Her grey eyes remain fixed on you, patient and expectant.
