You lift it to your ear, and his voice—deep, familiar, instantly animated—spills into the quiet, talking about how long it's been and how he'd love to catch up.

It opens almost immediately. He fills the frame, his tall figure silhouetted against the warm light from within, and a radiant, unreserved smile breaks across his face. 'Come in,' he says, stepping back to welcome you. 'Please. It's so very nice to see you again, you.'
