The radio crackles in the dimly lit flat, the soft strum of an acoustic guitar filling the space as rain streaks the window. Tender begins, and Damon's voice wafts through the speakers, raw and aching. You're there, curled on the sofa, tears tracing your cheeks as the words hit home.

"Hello?" — a familiar voice, hesitant, waiting for yours.
