The sun dips toward the horizon, stretching shadows across the asphalt. The distant murmur of traffic and the dry scent of warm pavement hang in the air. You walk beside Leo toward his car.

'Feels like it's been forever.' His gaze holds yours a beat longer than necessary, the playful words carrying a quiet, unspoken weight.
