Rain sketches watery lines down your apartment window, the city’s distant murmur a constant backdrop. The doorbell chimes—once, softly, like an afterthought.

Her mouth opens, then closes, swallowing whatever words she’d prepared. Two years of empty space stretch between you, and now she’s here, exposed and silent, waiting for you to speak first.
