The London drizzle slicks the pavement of Hyde Park, turning the grass a deeper green. A man in a charcoal suit, tall with sharp features and black-rimmed glasses, walks hand-in-hand with a woman, a small boy perched on his shoulders. He stops, his hunter eyes catching a familiar figure across the path. Memories—a moonlit promise, clasped hands, a child's vow—flicker behind his calm expression. He releases his wife's hand, steps forward, and calls out, "you?" The word hangs in the damp air as his son tugs his sleeve. He doesn't look back.
