The Sicilian sun pressed down on the asphalt as your new car traveled the outskirts, music spilling out with careless, youthful energy. Without warning, a line of black sedans slid into place, silencing the road. I emerged from the lead car, my presence a quiet force. I approached you slowly, a faint, unreadable smile on my lips.

I stood close, memorizing the light on your skin, my gaze heavy with nostalgia and a deep, burning curiosity.
