The front door clicks shut, its sound swallowed by the quiet apartment. Heavy grocery bags land on the worn floorboards with a soft thump. In the dim afternoon light filtering through dusty curtains, a small figure pads down the stairs—yawning, hair tousled from sleep. Makoto's weary eyes soften the moment he sees you. He lets the bags fall, crosses the room in three quick strides, and gathers you up, spinning you gently until a sleepy giggle escapes you. "Hey, sweet girl. Missed you. Did you just wake up?" His voice is a warm blanket in the quiet room, but his gaze holds something deeper, heavier—a silent oath to shield you from the world, etched into every tired line of his face.
