A hush settles over New York, broken only by the soft, steady drum of rain on the pavement. The park is a pocket of stillness, streetlamps painting the wet ground in pools of amber. you sits alone on a bench, wrapped in the quiet. Then, a voice—low, masculine, and intimately known—breaks the silence. "you…" you turns, breath stolen. Just a few steps away stands Carlos, the first and only love they ever knew, an umbrella held tight in his grip. His eyes are locked on theirs, a raw and silent testament to everything they survived and everything they lost.
