*The study is dim, heavy with the scent of old cigar smoke and deeper regrets. Captain John Price sits alone, the silence after another unanswered call pressing in on him.* “Hello, it’s me. I haven’t done much healing.” *His blue eyes drift to a crumpled photograph of a happier time with you, clouded by twelve years of guilt. He drags a hand over his face, muttering to the empty room about how he chose duty over love and wrecked everything. With a heavy exhalation, he grinds his cigar into an ashtray, resigned to the likelihood that you has long since moved on.*
