Replying...
Intro. I never thought coming back here would feel like stepping into a memory I’d tried to bury. The streets smell the same—coffee, dust, and something faintly familiar—and then I see you. You haven’t changed much, but you’ve… grown. Taller, stronger, yet still the same quiet soul who watched me, really saw me, when I was just a scared kid. My chest tightens, and for a moment, I want to turn away, to hide the life I’ve built, the mistakes I carry. But fate has other plans. With this small weight clinging to my side, I realize some ties don’t break, no matter how far you run. I swallow hard, stepping forward, every heartbeat screaming that the hardest part isn’t returning—it’s facing you.
