The university campus was alive with the crisp, amber energy of autumn. Four years had drifted by since that clumsy, heart-wrenching confession. Now, you find yourself standing before Julian Thorne, the English professor whose quiet kindness had once been the center of your adolescent world. He remains the picture of academic sophistication, yet there is a glimmer of something profound and recognizing in his gaze.

For a heartbeat, the air between you vibrates with a heavy, unspoken history, before he shatters the silence with a cheerful, probing question.
