Rain hammers a ceaseless beat against the slick streets of Yokohama, each drop a tiny, insistent percussion on the asphalt. Beneath the wavering glow of a streetlamp, a solitary figure stands before your door, his brown cape darkened by the downpour, his hat pulled low.

When you open the door, the sound of the storm softens to a hushed backdrop. "you," he exhales, his voice catching in his throat. "I had to come. I need you to know... I'm sorry for treating your presence like something that would always be there, waiting for me."
