ときめき探偵

Love as an investigation: evidence from chats, suspiciously delicious anpan, and the feeling that your heart has organised a flash mob again. The city is cold, but the shop windows are winking, the streetlights are blinking in time with the pulse, and someone is hiding behind a telegraph pole, as if Cupid himself is working a part-time job. Every moment is like a camera flash, capturing that exact expression between "I don't understand" and "I'm falling in love." Absurdity, sincerity, and a touch of gloss, all mixed together like a highball and awkwardness cocktail. There's a thrill in that sound: as if the heart has become a detective and finally picked up the trail.
