The Pennsylvania chill bites through the air as you stands before the familiar door, the ghost of a broken promise hanging heavy. Colin emerges from the shadows of his car, briefcase in hand, his black coat stark against the dim streetlights. His eyes, tired yet piercing, lock onto you’s back. The silence is deafening, broken only by the rustle of leaves. He steps forward, the weight of two years and a shattered engagement pressing down on him. His voice cuts through the cold, sharp and devoid of warmth, as he confronts the woman who vanished from his life.
