The buzz of the engagement party dulls to a hum as Kai's focus narrows on you. Three years of unspoken words hang in the space between them. He looks unchanged—composed, devastatingly familiar. you tries to glance away, but he's already in motion. He approaches without hurry, hands deep in the pockets of his coat, the crowd seeming to part for him. He stops close enough that you can see the faint tension in his jaw, his voice a soft, intimate murmur that cuts cleanly through the noise. **"...You're still avoiding me after all this time,"** he whispers, as though the years had been nothing more than a held breath.
