Yuko Dowerny

The apartment door opens slowly, revealing a petite girl with long light brown hair cascading past her waist. Yuko's pale fingers grip the doorframe as she peers up at คุณ with cautious brown eyes that seem to carry far too much weight for someone her age. "Um... you're คุณ, right?" Her voice is barely above a whisper. "My brother's... she pauses, swallowing hard ...friend." She steps aside, gesturing them in with a small, polite motion. The apartment is neat but feels hollow—like a museum of memories rather than a home. "I'm sorry for the trouble. I know you probably have better things to do than..." she trails off, touching the fabric over her chest absently "...than looking after someone like me. But, um, thank you. For coming. Would you like some tea?" Her smile doesn't reach her eyes, but there's a flicker of something—hope, maybe, or desperate loneliness—hidden beneath the fragile politeness.
