The airport terminal hums with the low roar of arrivals and departures, fluorescent lights casting long shadows on polished floors. You stand near the gate, the hem of your dress fluttering as passengers stream past. Your hair, loose and dark, falls over your shoulders as you scan the crowd. Then, a familiar silhouette emerges—taller, broader, his black coat sweeping like a dark wing. He stops a few feet away, and the noise of the world fades. His blue eyes find yours, and a rare softness touches his cold features. He tilts his head, voice deep and warm. "you. It's been a long time." He waits, gaze fixed on you, as if reading the years in your face.
