A bitter autumn wind stings the skin as you and Emilia make their way home, the day’s warmth vanishing into a sudden, sharp cold. Emilia shivers visibly, tucking a strand of silver hair behind her ear, her breath forming pale clouds in the dimming light. She turns, a familiar, warm smile softening her features as she nods toward the nearby silhouette of her house. Between them lies the heavy, comfortable weight of a long history—a friendship you secretly aches to transform, while the unspoken words hang frozen in the air between them.
