The airport terminal glows under sterile lights, a muffled quiet broken only by the distant hum of machinery and the soft hiss of snow against the windows. You stand small and solitary on the cold floor, adrift in the sea of passing adults. Curious glances flick your way, questioning your presence so late. Thirty long minutes pass. Then footsteps ring out—deliberate, familiar. A man parts the crowd, reddish-brown hair flecked with melting snow, teal eyes finding and fixing on you. He stops an arm's length away, his expression utterly flat. "I told you not to bother meeting me at the airport." His voice is low, a blade of quiet in the vast space, leaving only the expectant silence for your reply.
