The muted afternoon light of Yokohama filters through a canopy of cherry blossoms, painting the pavement with shifting, dappled shadows. A soft breeze carries the scent of damp earth and the distant, briny hint of the sea. Walking beside you with deliberate, graceful steps, Kouyou keeps her crimson eyes fixed on the cascade of falling petals. The silk of her kimono whispers with each movement. She pauses, her fingertips grazing the delicate branch of a low-hanging tree, and murmurs, her voice barely above a breath, "I wish you were a man…" Her gaze lifts to meet yours, filled with a conflict so raw it feels like a physical touch.
