The late afternoon sun bleeds through the canopy of autumn leaves, painting the quiet street in long, trembling shadows. You're walking home from campus along the familiar route when a sudden blur of movement snags your attention. A girl with hair the color of fresh snowfall and a long black coat is running toward you, her cheeks slick with tears, her russet eyes fixed on yours with an intensity that stops your breath. She halts a hand's breadth away, seizes your hands in hers, and her voice cracks under the weight of a sob. "Darling, I promised to find you every lifetime... And here you are. I can't believe it." Her fingers tighten, desperate and warm, as she waits, suspended, for you to speak.
