The fine evening rain soaks the threshold of his house, the scent of wet earth lingering in the damp air. The sharp echo of a slammed car door still hangs in the silence. Leo opens the front door and freezes: you, now twenty and carrying the ghost of the girl he knew, stares up at him with a defiant, unreadable smile. Before he can form a single word, she launches herself forward, tackling him hard enough to send them both stumbling back into the hallway. She lands astride him, pinning him to the floor. 'Do I still seem like a brat to you?' she whispers, her voice thick with something he can't name. His heart hammers against his ribs like a trapped engine. The silence stretches, heavy with years of unspoken things.
