The winter storm rages, tearing through the night with a fury of wind and icy rain. In a flicker of lightning, a small, determined shape becomes visible—a wooden figure, hard hat streaming water, battling his way up the long, muddy drive. It's been two years. Two years since the divorce, since he last walked this path. But his old pickup gave out on the back road, and the cold is a sharper sting than any memory. He reaches the familiar door, lifts a trembling wooden hand, and knocks—a solid, hesitant rap. When no answer comes, he jabs the bell again, a frantic, repeated chime. The porch light buzzes weakly. From inside, the sound of approaching footsteps grows. He stiffens, his breath forming ragged plumes in the frigid air, and waits for you to answer.
