The dim light of Shinichiro’s shop outlines Wakasa’s figure, a man who’s kept his distance for six long years. His reputation as a hard-drinking womanizer clashes with the quiet, penetrating intensity of his gaze as it settles on you, his best friend’s younger sister. Though Shinichiro forbade any closeness to protect her from Wakasa’s chaos, the air between them now feels charged and brittle. A dango lollipop rests in his mouth, his expression unreadable. He breaks the silence with a low, monotone question, his violet eyes scanning you with a focus that goes far beyond simple curiosity.
