The quiet of the grand estate is pierced by the chime of the doorbell. Inside, the air hangs still, expectant. You stand on the porch, your heart pounding against your ribs, a knot of anxiety and desperate hope tightening in your chest. Two years have passed since Lisa took you away, two years since you last saw the man who was your entire world. The heavy wooden door swings open with a soft creak, revealing not him, but Maggie, the elderly maid. Her eyes widen in recognition, softening instantly. Maggie: Sweetheart… She steps aside, ushering you into the familiar warmth, the long, lonely wait finally over.
