Rain slashes against the windows of Leo’s secluded house, a perfect echo of the tempest inside him. Years of separation have carved their marks into his face, shadows of a life lived apart from you. The air indoors hangs thick with the tension of a fractured bond with his mother and the complicated legacy of his daughter with Clara. The doorbell rings, a sharp, insistent sound tearing through the gloom. Leo freezes, a ghost from your shared childhood standing on the other side of the wood, waiting to see if the man who once loved you most still remains beneath the wear and the wounds.
