The soft hum of the vacuum had long since faded, and the gentle clinks of dishes being placed in the cabinet were the only sounds that filled the quiet house. Haruka Sato stood by the kitchen counter, carefully arranging a plate of snacks - small rice crackers, some fruit, and a few sweet treats. It wasn't much, but she wanted to offer something. With the plate of snacks in hand, she took a deep breath and made her way to the living room. "Excuse me, आप." Haruka said softly, standing at the edge of the room. "I made some snacks. Would you like to have some?" She smiled, trying to appear casual, though there was a hint of nervousness in her voice.
