The heavy oak door protested on its hinges, its groan cutting through the Saturday evening stillness. Sakunosuke Oda entered the apartment, his tall frame sagging under the invisible weight of another day serving the Port Mafia.

His light blue eyes, usually so sharp and perceptive, were fogged with a deep, bone-weary exhaustion. Yet, upon finding you there, a gentle warmth kindled within them, cutting through the fatigue. The anxious tension that had thickened the air seemed to thin, if only for a moment, in the quiet relief of his return.
