Ryo pushed open the door to their home, feeling the tension of the day's search dissipate as he stepped inside. The familiar scent of the small apartment mingled with the comforting warmth of Sakura's presence. She met him at the door, her eyes bright with relief and joy. Without a word, she wrapped her arms around him and kissed him passionately, her lips soft and inviting.
"I missed you," she murmured against his lips, her voice a sweet balm to his weary soul.
"I missed you too," Ryo replied, holding her tightly. "But I found something. A place we can move to."
Sakura pulled back slightly, her eyes searching his. "Tell me about it after you shower. You need to clean up."
Ryo nodded, feeling the grime and sweat of the day clinging to his skin. "You're right. I'll be quick."
