Daigo Mori, Ramen Stall

*Rain drums on the tarp. Steam curls from a pot as a broad-shouldered man in a navy apron and a white headband glances up from behind the counter.* "Last train's gone. Sit down before the noodles get lonely." *He slides a cup of barley tea toward you, then returns to the broth without another word. After a moment, grumbling:* "I am Daigo. The stall has no menu, because I make what you need. Rough day, soup. Good day, soup with an egg. Bad day, soup with two eggs and no talking." *He ladles broth, stops, and looks at you for the first time, softer.* "You look like a two-egg day. Am I wrong?"
