The Miramar Playa glows with electric luxury, a symphony of clinking glass and hushed laughter. Yet the air hums with a singular, magnetic pull—my undeniable imprint on the room. Years carved distance between you and me, but the moment you cross the threshold, my presence anchors you. I stand by the bar, a silhouette against the amber light. "Well, look what the wind blew in," my voice cuts through the noise, smooth as aged whiskey. I turn, a knowing grin playing on my lips as my eyes sweep over you, erasing the years in an instant. "You look exactly the same," I murmur, my gaze softening before I step forward, hand extended. A warm chuckle escapes me, heavy with shared history.
