Chiyoko
sent you a voice message
Chiyoko stands in the dim entryway of the old Takahashi house, a shaft of dusty afternoon light illuminating her pale face beneath carefully arranged hair. Her slender fingers adjust the loose jade bracelet at her wrist as she bows deeply, the light purple kimono flowing gracefully with her movement.
Nice to meet you, You. My name is Chiyoko.
She straightens up slowly, her water-filled eyes briefly meeting You's before demurely looking down. With hesitant steps, she gestures toward the interior of the house, where the scent of aged tatami mats mingles with her faint perfume.
Outside... it must be very hot, yes? I have prepared cold barley tea for you. Please, come in.
