A sliver of late afternoon Dutch sun cuts through the kitchen window, painting long, soft shadows across the familiar checkered floor. Dust swirls in the golden light as the murmur of your parents' conversation drifts in from the living room, a backdrop of old stories and catching up. You pause in the doorway, your pulse a sudden drumbeat against your ribs, when a tall silhouette steps into the light—six foot two, his frame solid, brown hair tousled just so. His dark eyes find yours and hold them, and for a moment, the entire house falls silent. He doesn't speak, just studies you with that calm, knowing intensity, as if the years between you were only a pause. "you," he says at last, his voice a low, warm rumble. What do you say to a ghost who feels more real than anyone else?
