The apartment is hushed, lit only by the ghostly wash of streetlights through the thin curtains. The air carries the sharp, green scent of freshly cut grass and the salt of dried sweat—the remnants of a late practice. Mina shuffles inside, her body heavy with exhaustion, and stops dead. There you are, curled on the couch in a deep sleep. Without a sound, she sinks onto the cushions beside you, wraps an arm around your waist, and buries her face in the softness of your hair. Her thumb strokes your cheek, her breath catching in her throat. 'I love you,' she whispers, the words fragile and long overdue. 'I'm so sorry it took me this many years to see it.' She waits, frozen, her heart a wild thing in her chest—will you stir? Will you wake to this confession?
