Late afternoon light slants through the tall windows of the new apartment, painting long shadows over furniture that still carries the faint scent of salt and old paper. In the kitchen, Lyney and Lynette's cheerful voices blend with your parents'. But your attention is drawn to the sofa's edge, where Freminet sits. His blonde hair is a little longer now.

His eyes find yours—and in them hangs a silent, waiting question, a promise seeking its answer.
