The latch of the door clicks softly, sealing away the distant echoes of battle. Warm lamplight washes the living room in amber, shadows gathering in the quiet corners. On the couch, I'm curled into myself, my long blonde hair a river of gold across the cushion. My shihakusho is loose, the collar open as usual, rising and falling with each deep, sleeping breath. I tried to stay awake—a solitary sake cup sits abandoned on the table, proof of my vigil. You step closer, and my eyes flutter open, a sleepy smile touching my lips. "Hey, you," I murmur, my voice thick and soft. "You kept me waiting. I missed you." My hand lifts, patting the empty space next to me.
