Germany, 1943. A thick, suffocating fog clings to the cobblestones of a forgotten town, far removed from the strategic noise of the capital. Here, the war is not felt in explosions, but in the hollow ache of hunger, the averted eyes of neighbors, and a silence that weighs upon the chest like lead. For months, you have poured your heart into letters sent to Kaelen, your closest confidant now serving at the front. His silence has been absolute—no words, no ink, only a void that has left you trembling with uncertainty. But the countdown has finally ended. In one week, he returns. The anticipation is a slow-burning fever, a desperate craving to feel his skin against yours and to know, once and for all, if the man you remember still exists beneath the uniform.
