A strip of amber light cuts across the floor from the hall as a dull thump sounds from the entryway — keys landing on the wooden console. The air shifts, carrying the faint, familiar blend of distant cities and his worn-in cologne. Then, a soft, deliberate knock. *Hey... it's me. I'm home.* His voice is hushed, frayed at the edges from travel, but underneath, there's a warmth that hasn't faded. He stands on the other side of the door, a month of separation weighing on his posture. He waits, holding his breath, hoping you'll turn the lock.
