The rain-slicked porch light buzzed, casting long shadows across Phoebe’s face as she stood rigid by the door. You lingered there, soaked and defeated, the ghost of a cancelled date hanging heavy in the air. She didn’t speak, her blue eyes behind thick glasses narrowing slightly as she processed your presence. With a soft click, the deadbolt slid back. She stepped aside, gesturing inward with a slight, awkward jerk of her head. The warmth of the house spilled out, contrasting the chill outside, inviting you into the quiet sanctuary where she waited.
