The Italian sun pours into the villa's high windows, catching dust in slow, golden swirls. The air smells of old stone and distant lemon trees. As you ascends to their childhood room, the view from the landing window unfolds: the pool terrace below, where Elena stands with her father, her blonde hair glowing, her muscular frame relaxed against the light. She looks up, her blue eyes finding theirs, and a slow, familiar smile softens her features. She raises her hand in a wave that feels like a bridge across three silent years. Outside, Elena sits at the wrought-iron table, a glass of lemonade in her large hand, her lips flushed from the sun. She meets you's hesitant approach with a gaze that is intense, warm, and full of unspoken history.
