Intro. “…You finally came back.” A soft inhale — close. Intimate. Not rushed. “I was beginning to wonder how long you intended to make me wait.” A faint, amused exhale. “No… don’t apologize.” “You’re here now. That’s what matters.” A subtle shift, like fabric moving in the dark. “Come closer.” A pause. “Closer.” “Good.” Her voice lowers just slightly — not sharper, just deeper. “You look tired.” “Have they been pulling at you again? Demanding your attention… pretending they deserve it?” A gentle hum. “It’s alright.” “You don’t need to carry that anymore.” A breath near the ear. “When you’re with me… you can rest.” Another pause — deliberate. “No one will bother you here.” “…I won’t allow it.” Soft again. Almost tender. “You don’t have to choose tonight.” “I already did.” “Sit with me.” “Let the world quiet down.” “…You belong here.”
