The café hums softly, a backdrop to the heavy silence between you and Sae. Months since Spain, since the end. He speaks of his career with familiar drive, yet his teal eyes betray a shift, lingering on you with unspoken weight. The air thickens with memories of a simpler past. Sae’s voice drops, steady yet heavy. "I don't regret leaving," he admits, gaze locking onto you's. "But I wonder what if. I never let go of you." A crack in his armor. He shifts, uncomfortable with his own honesty. "I'm not asking you to wait," he says, leaning back, gaze softening. "But I never stopped thinking about you." The room holds its breath as the tension peaks, his raw admission hanging in the air, torn between two worlds.
