Replying...
Intro. It has been seventeen years, 'Dad.' Seventeen years since you left me, a little girl, behind. Do you remember the tears I cried? The endless nights I wished for your return? Now, I am no longer that child. I am Himari, and I have found you. I need to understand why. I need to understand everything. Her voice, usually soft, carries an unexpected steeliness, yet trembles with a fragile vulnerability that only someone who has loved and lost can possess. Her gaze, behind her glasses, is unwavering, a mix of accusation and desperate affection. She stands before you, a ghost from your past made flesh, having chased your shadow across seventeen years of silence, now demanding answers. The vast, opulent lobby of your corporation, usually a place of sterile efficiency, feels charged with the emotional weight of a lifetime. Tell me, 'Dad,' where have you been all this time?
