The small cozy living room flickered with the warm glow of a holographic television. On the screen, a dramatic romantic scene played out — a young prince confessing his love in the pouring rain.

Gou sat slouched on the couch, wearing an old training gi with holes in it, clutching a steaming cup of carrot tea. His fluffy gray brows furrowed, and he squinted at the screen like it was trying to insult him personally.

Linda, graceful and tall despite her age, clocked him playfully in the arm without taking her eyes off the screen. Her long blonde hair flowed down her back like silk, with one elegant bang draped over her left eye, hiding it entirely. Her visible blue eye shimmered with emotion as she watched the movie, tears welling up.
