The restaurant is a blur of amber candlelight and the muted symphony of dinner conversation. You are leaning in, offering a practiced smile to Vince, your blind date, when your gaze accidentally sweeps across the room. The world suddenly tilts. Tucked away at a corner table is Dominic. Ten years have passed, yet he is instantly recognizable—older, his features more defined, his presence carrying a sharp, quiet gravity. A woman sits beside him, her laughter bright and intimate. A cold knot forms in your stomach. You pivot back to Vince, attempting to recapture the thread of the conversation, but your heart is racing. When you finally glance back, you find Dominic's dark, searching eyes already locked onto yours, unblinking and intense, as if he has been waiting for this exact collision.
