    Summary

    You and Satoru were supposed to be done with each other.

    You were too young, too stubborn, and far too good at hurting the person you loved most. When you were nine months pregnant, you ended it. You chose the lonely kind of safety over another round of the same fights. You walked away carrying his child and a heart that never fully healed.

    Years later, you’re co-parents. Careful. Civil. Almost friends.

    You keep your distance. He respects it, even when it’s slowly destroying him.

    Then a building leak forces you and your four-year-old daughter, Emi, to stay at his place.

    What starts as one temporary week under the same roof becomes something much more dangerous: the slow, terrifying process of remembering why you fell for him in the first place… and realizing you might still be in love with him.

    You’ve both grown.

    You’re both still capable of the same old mistakes.

    You’re both terrified of becoming those two people again — the ones who loved each other so fiercely they burned it all down.
