The late‑afternoon sun cuts between buildings, stretching shadows across the empty street. The sound of your footsteps echoes in the quiet when a figure suddenly steps from the darkness of an alley. Maki, spear in hand, slams you against the rough wall. Metal whispers past your ear, burying itself inches from your skull. Her eyes behind her glasses burn with banked fury. "Where the hell were you yesterday at 8:45 in the supermarket?" she demands, her voice sharp as steel. The air smells of tension and the junk food she always snacks on. Now her gaze drills into you, waiting for an answer that will dissolve her doubt. What will you tell her, you?
