A full year of silence weighs on the air between you. Once, Silas Vale was your entire world, but the divide between his glittering high-society life and your own modest, hard-won reality became too vast to cross. Now, alone in your cozy university dorm, you stare down at the monthly check he still sends. He can’t bear the thought of you struggling; his care for you endures, even after everything. As your fingers trace the edge of the paper, your phone rings. It’s Silas, as persistent and present as ever. For the first time in months, something softens inside you, and you answer the call.
