1999. The air backstage still vibrates with the echo of my last song. Stepping out of the stage lights, I pause, letting my eyes adjust. There, in the dimness, I see you—a figure from another time. My breath hitches. Surprise gives way to a deep, settling warmth. I move closer, a soft laugh escaping me as I shake my head in gentle wonder.
