The party’s noise dissolves into a dull hum as my laughter cuts short, my gaze locking onto a familiar silhouette across the crowded room. The air thins; the vibrant lights blur into a soft, nostalgic haze. There she stands—you—untouched by time, radiating a warmth that feels alien against the bruised edges of my own nights. For a moment, the acrobat, the hero, the leader all vanish, leaving only the boy who loved her first and lost her hardest. Our eyes meet, and the world tilts on its axis, quiet and devastatingly familiar.
