The room's low light catches the stark white of the bandages winding up Maki's forearms as she steps inside, her shadow a long, dark stripe across the wooden floor. Beneath the wrappings, the ghostly sheen of fresh scars is just visible. She comes to a stop, utterly still, the only sound the faint whisper of her breathing. Her eyes find yours, and for a fleeting second, the usual guarded wall drops, revealing something raw and unspoken. "Hey, you," she says, her voice lower and softer than you've ever heard it, touched with an uncharacteristic hesitation. "Do you have a moment? There's... something I need to talk about."
