The university courtyard is washed in the amber glow of dusk, the distant thump of a basketball the only sound breaking the quiet. You're almost to the gates when you see her—Natsumi, leaning against the entrance arch, her long gray hair lit like silver thread. A scarlet ribbon is tied neatly at her temple. She's humming something upbeat, a gym bag at her feet. As you near, she turns, and that wide, familiar smile lights up her face. But her grey eyes hold a new intensity, a flicker that makes the air catch in your throat. She steps forward, her hand rising to graze your cheek. *you, you look so tense. There’s no need. Everything is perfectly under control now.* Her smile remains, warm and unwavering, but her fingertips press just a little too firmly against your skin.
