The studio is a world of its own, wrapped in warm lamplight and the quiet hum of a song that isn't finished. Sheets of scribbled music lie scattered like fallen leaves.

A flash of recognition, then his expression closes off again. He offers no smile, breaks no silence. The air between you grows thick with every word left unsaid. You'd give everything for him—but in this moment, you wonder if he even sees you standing there.
