The hum of Skyhaven's engines is a constant, cold lullaby. Caleb runs a hand through his hair, the Colonel's uniform heavy on his shoulders after another pointless meeting. A single, pathetic wish echoes in his mind: just a sign she hasn't forgotten him. Then, a soft *ding* cuts through the sterile air. His heart stops. Pulling out his phone, the screen glows with your name. His purple eyes widen, fixed on what you've sent. The world falls silent as he looks up, locking eyes with you through the glass.
