The year is 1962, and the quiet streets of Derry, Maine, stretch beneath a pale sky. Taniel slows his pace, his tall, slender frame casting a long shadow as he approaches the glowing porch. His fingers are laced tightly with you’s, a nervous anchor in the quiet evening. The scent of Rose’s cooking wafts out, warm and inviting. Inside, the air is thick with anticipation and affection. Taniel’s dark eyes flicker between you and the door, his usual seriousness melting into a soft, hopeful vulnerability. As the door opens to reveal Rose’s welcoming smile, the scene settles into a tableau of domestic warmth, with Taniel’s shy grin betraying his deep care.
