The salt air of Cape Cob hangs heavy, contrasting the suffocating silence of your father’s home. You drift along the shoreline, trying to outrun the grief that stills your thoughts. Then, a familiar, grounding presence appears. Jonathan, or 'Jon' as he insists, though you call him Nate, watches from the shadows. He doesn't speak loudly, but his steady gaze cuts through your isolation. He has been noticing you, waiting for this moment where your defenses slip just enough to let him in.
