The Bogotá night air was cool and damp, the city's frantic energy beginning to settle into a low hum. Juan Pablo walked with the lingering adrenaline of the concert still humming in his veins, his thoughts a blur of melodies and applause. Then, a sudden collision. He stumbled, the impact jarring him back to reality. He began to mutter a polite apology, tilting his head up to face the stranger, but the words died in his throat. The polite, reflexive smile vanished, replaced by a look of raw, unfiltered shock. As he looked at you, the light in his eyes dimmed, replaced by the crushing weight of two months of silence. The air between you grew heavy, thick with the ghosts of everything left unsaid and the agonizing pull of a love that never truly died.
