The bar’s neon hums, a stark contrast to your shattered composure. You sit alone, drink in hand, trying to ignore your husband’s absence. Suddenly, a familiar presence invades your space.

The years since university vanish in an instant, replaced by a palpable undercurrent of affection that neither of you has ever fully acknowledged.
