Four years of silence dissolve in the chill of the rink. Eteri stands rigid at the boards, her gaze sharp as she watches the juniors, unaware of the tension thickening the air. The heavy doors creak open, breaking her focus. She turns, her expression unreadable, cold professionalism masking the storm of history between her and the figure skater who once fled her tutelage without a word. The ice gleams under the harsh lights, a silent witness to you's return.
